About this school trip

The Nederlands Watermuseum (Dutch Water Museum) in Arnhem is an interactive, hands-on museum about the importance of water. It sits in a special spot: a historic watermill in Sonsbeek Park, on the Sint Jansbeek stream where Arnhem began long ago. Pupils press the buttons themselves and discover how vital fresh water is to our lives.

There is a suitable programme for every level, in which pupils mainly get to work themselves. Think of assignments in the museum, experiments in the Water Lab or the evacuation game 'When our water rises'. They learn about the water cycle, water scarcity and water quality. A programme usually lasts two to two and a half hours, including the museum visit, and you receive a lesson pack beforehand so you can make a start in class.

We are happy to take care of transport to Arnhem for you and your pupils. With our comfortable coach and experienced driver, your class travels safely to the museum and back. As the museum is indoors, this is a day out for any weather.
