Planning Your Visit

Timing your visit
The Museum is open 10am - 4pm daily.

Recommended visit duration
The duration of your visit will depend on the particular school visit program you choose. Otherwise we recommend allowing 1½ hours to view the galleries.

Maximum group size for led activities
To ensure that the students enjoy the best possible learning experience, we ask that the maximum number of students for a led activity is 30. If you have more than 30 students, they will be split into smaller groups and the program run one after the other for each group.

Risk Assessment
The Venue and Safety Information for School Excursions document [new window 62 KB PDF] is to assist teachers/group leaders when completing their own risk assessment during a preliminary visit to Cobb+Co Museum. Updated 25 March 2009.

Lunch/morning or afternoon tea
School groups are welcome to bring lunch or morning or afternoon tea and eat outside under our shady trees.

Toilets
Toilets are available in the courtyard.

Drinking water
A cold water drink bubbler is outside in the courtyard.

Disabled access
Cobb+Co offers ramp access for wheelchairs. Assistance is available on request for other special needs.

Special needs groups
Contact the Education Officer about tailoring a program to your needs.

On the day of your visit
Make contact with one of the Visitor Services Officer at the front desk. They will check details of your student numbers and handle invoicing/payment details, if required.
