Family Maths Trail at St Cecilia's Hall

St Cecilia's Hall 2nd-30th Sep 10.00am-3.00pm Free

Celebrate Maths Week Scotland with this specially themed family trail exploring maths and music!

Join us this September for our brand new Maths Week Scotland Family Trail! Can you find Finn Finnity hidden throughout our galleries and answer his questions about the maths in our musical instrument collection to win a Maths Week Scotland badge at the end?

The trail runs Tuesdays to Saturdays from 2 September to 30 September (the museum is closed on Sundays and Mondays).

What age is this trail suitable for?

All of our family trails have two components, making them suitable for a wide range of ages. Younger children are invited to find the hidden Finn Finity's throughout the galleries, whilst older children are invited to answer questions relating to maths and the museum. We recommend ages 10 and under.

Free but booking required

Admission to the museum and participation in the family trail is free (donations welcome), but we request you book in advance to help us manage numbers. There are hourly slots available, from 10am to 3pm. Register via the link below.
