About this school trip
Rijksmuseum Boerhaave in Leiden tells the story of 500 years of science and medicine. The museum is housed in the historic Caeciliagasthuis, where in the eighteenth century Herman Boerhaave taught medical students right beside the sickbed. It is an inspiring place for pupils to discover what science does.
Through hands-on workshops and historical stories and objects, pupils learn more about passionate scientists. By learning through enquiry and discovery, they come to understand how valuable science is in their own lives. There is an offer for primary, secondary and vocational schools, with teaching packs, school visits and tailored options for pupils who need something different.
We are happy to arrange transport to Leiden for you and your pupils. With our comfortable coach and experienced driver, your class travels safely to the museum and back, so you can concentrate on an educational day full of discoveries.
