The Royal Australian Mint hosts around 35,000 school students across the year, many of them visiting Canberra on the Year 5/6 excursion program. If you’re interested in booking your class in on free excursion tour, visit our listing at Book Canberra Excursions.

We have a remit and passion to educate more than just Australia’s school students, and this page is a starting point for your own learning journey about Australian coin and currency, numeracy and numismatics, our Royal Australia Mint building, and careers in STEAM. We share classroom resources and digital experiences if your school can’t make the excursion to Canberra, if you are a home school educator, or just curious.

We also feel that learning is a lifelong experience, and we share information to book a tour of our Museum, brush up on your coin knowledge or watch our Coinversation YouTube series.

If you have any questions the Mint’s school programs and resources or have an interest in coin history and the functions of the Mint, you can find more information here or you can email group.bookings@ramint.gov.au.
