School Programs
Road to Zero is an award-winning, state-of-the-art Education Complex at Melbourne Museum. Developed by the TAC in partnership with Melbourne Museum, Road to Zero offers free curriculum-linked programs for Year 9 and 10 Science and Health & PE and VCE Vocational Major (VM) students.
Facilitated by knowledgeable road safety educators, excursions to Road to Zero comprise two parts:
- Experience Space (45 minutes) – An exploratory exhibition of 13 immersive experiences that engage students with critical road safety themes.
- Learning Studio (75 minutes) – In the purpose built learning hub, students undertake one of two curriculum-linked programs, including creating a public health campaign video, and tackling a virtual reality physics experiment. They then apply their learning to a team-based challenge using touch table technology.
Teachers can download pre and post visit learning activities to enable students to build knowledge before their excursion and expand their learning after the visit.
The programs are delivered by trained facilitators who have the skills and tools to modify program messages and activities, based on the learning needs of your student group. When you book a session, you can request to talk to the facilitator to discuss your student's particular learning needs and potential modifications.
