Special Needs Programmes

As part of the museum’s commitment to be more inclusive, our team at the museum has created a series of programmes and resources for children and students with additional needs to make the most of their visit.

Resources for Self-Facilitated Group Visits

Special Education (SPED) schools can use the following free resources to enrich your students' visits:

1. Activity Booklets

Print these out at home or school, or request printed copies which will be passed to you at the start of your self-facilitated visit!

2. Craft Templates

Only available on-site. Request for them to be passed to you at the start of your self-facilitated visit!

To Book Self-Facilitated Group Visits

• Group Visits on Quiet Mornings: As part of the museum's commitment to greater inclusivity, we have designated the first Saturday (9am – 11am) and first and third Thursdays (9am – 12 noon) of each month as Quiet Mornings. This will provide children with additional needs with a quieter, more calming environment in which to experience the galleries. These slots are not available for booking on BookMuseums@SG. If you are a SPED school planning to visit on a Quiet Morning, please email nhb_nm_schools@nhb.gov.sg directly.
• For non-school organisations (e.g. VWOs) interested in booking group visits, please follow the instructions for General Group Visits.

Upon receiving your booking through BookMuseums@SG or nhb_nm_schools@nhb.gov.sg, we will get in touch so you can request your desired resources and their quantity.
