The Archive Education and Outreach Service began in 2001. It aims to make sure all community groups may access and learn from the holdings of the Norfolk Record Office. Since it started the service has provided support for schools including producing eight Study Unit Packs, each related to QCA topics, and numerous Local History Packs. Details on these and how to obtain them can be found on the schools and colleges page. The service has also provided talks and visits to numerous adult groups including Local History Clubs, Womens Insitutes and Rotary Clubs etc. which have been incredibly popular since the move to The Archive Centre in 2003. Information on visits can be found on the group visits to the NRO page and details of talks can be found on the off-site talks to groups page.
The NRO is continuing to provide access to both children and adults alike and we hope to be adding to our service in the future. If you have any suggestions on how we can help you, please let us know by contacting the Archive Education and Outreach Officer.
