Primary education

Port Rangers is a continuous learning pathway about the port for higher grades in primary education

Port Rangers allows them to gain greater knowledge about the port in a step-by-step way and learn about the port and its vast array of opportunities.  

How does it work?

Each educational programme consists of three parts. Pupils attend a preparatory lesson, take a field trip to Portlantis and do in-class assignments. In Portlantis, the children, accompanied by a guide, visit (part of) the exhibition, complete assignments and are offered participation in a workshop. 

Practical information

  • Excluding travel time, the field trip to Portlantis takes about 2.5 hours.
  • The cost is € 15,- per pupil, which includes workshop participation. A minimum of one guide per group should be booked at a cost of € 43,-.
  • The maximum group size is 32 pupils.
  • Minimum of 3 supervisors per group, with larger groups more supervision is desirable.
  • Supervisors will have free access.
  • Pupils bring their own food and drink for break time.
