Educational Support
In addition to our normal facilities and services such as tours, lectures,
school visits, cultural events, etc., Museum Kurá Hulanda also
offers educational support to schools and other interested groups.
Tasks and Questions
We have three age categories - 8-9 years old, 10-13 years old and
14-16 years old and Museum Kurá Hulanda has prepared a questionnaire
for the students to use. Important information is included on this
sheet which will help guide the students on their tour through the
museum and also help them identify items of interest. These forms
are available to teachers at the museum and it is also possible to
download the form below to prepare in advance for the visit. As the
spoken language at the schools here on Curaçao is Dutch, the
forms are written in this language.
Quest puzzle
Effortlessly the children will search through the museum finding the
right answers to their puzzle. While doing this, they will walk below
the City Gate of Djennée, go inside a ship's hold, sit in a
boat and get a good look at the Dogon granaries. This way they learn
a lot in an exciting way! The Quest puzzle is available at the museum
or you can download it below in order to prepare in advance for your
visit to the museum.
Bajanala
Bajanala, a stranger in Africa, is the title of the book written by
Jacob G. Dekker (Founder of Museum Kurá Hulanda). Travelling
from Cairo to Cape Town, children asked him to tell their stories
to the rest of the world. In Bajanala he retells these stories. This
book illustrates that children in Africa also have dreams. Copies
of this childrens book will be given to the primary schools of Curaçao
free of charge. The book is available in three languages: Dutch, Papiamentu
and English. |
