Meeting Point
When you arrive for your visit to Museum of Brisbane, please wait outside in King George Square. If the weather is inclement, your group should wait on either side of the portico.

Given the size of City Hall we ask that groups be supervised at all times by the appropriate number of adults for the safety of all students. This ratio is particularly important when travelling in lifts between the ground floor and Museum of Brisbane on Level 3. Please arrange the following:
