Teachers' Resources

You can book a loan box online now, using our special form for Enfield schools.

Loan boxes can be collected from, and returned to, Forty Hall.

Please note that the boxes have been re-packaged in light weight plastic boxes for ease of handling and transportation. As a result the contents may differ slightly from those in the past and currently shown on this website.

Teachers interested in using objects in their classes can download a copy of our teachers' notes for using objects in class (Word document, opens in a new window, file size = 1.87MB).
