Education Programs
The Library's education programs bring Territory history to life by drawing on our permanent exhibition A Territory Story and more than 300,000 items from our collections. Each education program is linked to learning outcomes in curriculum.
Education programs - an overview
The Northern Territory Library has delivered an Education Service to Territory schools for many years, introducing young people to the Library collections and major events in Territory history.
Programs Overview
Early Years (preschool – year 2)
We take a trip into the Territory’s past to explore how the environment influences home design, the materials used, and how these have evolved over time.
Early Years
Primary Years (years 3-6)
Investigate the people, places and events that have been a major influence in shaping Darwin into the unique place it is today.
Primary Years
Middle Years (years 7-9)
Create a new spin on old stories by creating an alternate headline and re-writing old news from a new perspective.
Middle Years
Senior Years (years 10-12)
Take a critical look at some of the Territory’s historical content. What if that episode in history was written from another perspective; how would it read then?
