In partnership with the Musée National de l'Éducation de Rouen and the CANOPÉ network. Come discover or rediscover the school of the past. An exhibition that will remind you of the ink stains on your hands and the chalk dust on the blackboard. Panels trace the evolution of teaching at school, from the small school of the 16th century to the school of the 3rd Republic. Display cases also present the objects of the perfect schoolboy such as ink jars, a compass, a slate, a goose feather, blotting paper, old school bags... An educational booklet adapted to school audiences and families is available free of charge. As a bonus, a creative activity is proposed to realize a paper donkey cap.
