Museum Features - Historic Classroom

On the upper level of the Museum building the Illawarra Historical Society has set up a schoolroom.

The displays vary from different eras relating to children’s education. Old wooden school desks set the mood and rekindle some of the visitors’ childhood memories. At the front of the room located near the teachers desk is a large blackboard on an easel. Nearby is a bookcase containing some children’s old story books. A show case contains an old slate board, pens and nibs and even a teacher’s cane.
