Family Learning Programme

Nelson’s Cub Club

Join Little Nelson and his Lion family to explore objects from the museum's collections and engage with them through stories, songs, and play!

Nelson’s Cub Club forms part of our family learning provision and is aimed at families with children aged 1-4. It’s a free session and includes a small drink and snack per child. We meet every 2 weeks during termtime on a Wednesday morning and afternoon.

Please see our events page for further dates and details, or alternatively follow our social media to keep up to date with what Nelson’s up to.

Care Home Programme

Our teams work with local community groups across Rotherham, sharing their connections with local places and people to see how communities can be represented at Clifton Park Museum and across our heritage sites.

Our Learning and Audience Development team lead on a number of creative and engaging projects aimed at specific targeted communities including Global Majorities, older people, and intergenerational families. Many of these projects enable people who cannot easily visit our sites to still connect, explore, and share their stories with us.
