Discover no ordinary classroom
A classroom with a difference, discover two experiences for one excursion at the MCG. Whether your school is looking for a day filled with activities at the MCG, or only has a limited time, we can offer an inclusive excursion experience for all students, of all capabilities.
A visit to the Australian Sports Museum is a self-guided experience full of interaction and exploration. We recommend 90-minutes for your school here, where students can take 60-minutes to explore the museum before spending 30-minutes to play in Game On!
An MCG Tour is led by an MCC volunteer, where students are taken on a 60-minute tour of the stadium.
Free e-learning resources are available for your students to enhance their discovery before or after visiting the Australian Sports Museum.
We offer free admission for one supervisor per 10 students. Please note, there needs to be 1 teacher with duty of care per 10 students. The teacher retains duty of care and responsibility of behaviour of students.

Indigenous Trail
Explore the Australian Sports Museum through a collection of Indigenous sporting moments. Featured across several of the displays inside the museum are a series of objects and stories centered on Indigenous athletes.
Students and visitors alike are invited to independently explore, learn and reflect on these stories through Thinking Routines. To find the stories, keep an eye out for this fingerprint featured around the museum.
Sustainability Experience
Ever wondered where your rubbish goes after a footy game? Or how the MCG powers the light towers?
Students can now learn about the MCG’s energy, emissions, waste and water usage initiatives as part of our educational Sustainability Experience.
Successful Storytelling
What does it really take to tell a good story? Join us for an interactive session aimed at teaching students a new perspective on storytelling. Our storytelling expert will share the techniques used to train our Volunteers on the award winning MCG Tour, and how students can bring this into their own work.
The session will delve into understanding the reason why you want to tell the story, and how you best tell it to keep your audience engaged.
