And it’s goodbye from me…
Posted by: Neil Dymond-Green on: September 10, 2010
It’s with some sadness I write this post, but it’s time for me to move on to pastures new. I’ve enjoyed working with the Learning Teams at the Manchester Museum and the Whitworth Art Gallery and with the many teachers and children who have visited and taken part in sessions and projects.

Posted by: Neil Dymond-Green on: March 24, 2010
Gavin Shortall is the Year 6 teacher at St James’ CE Primary School, Rusholme, which is our ‘school in residence’.

TSI: Time Scene Investigation
Posted by: Neil Dymond-Green on: January 19, 2009
We’re very privileged in the Manchester Museum to be able to experiment, evaluate and reflect on what we do as a Learning Team. In the coming few weeks, I’ll be ‘experimenting’ with a group of children from St James Primary in Rusholme. I first met and worked with them a year ago when they became [...]
