New Publication – The 6th“Booking Service Guide for Visits”

Since its opening in 2006, it has been mainly serving residents and students of Macao. In order to continuously improve the quality of our services, the Museum has been paying close attention to opinions from different channels over the past ten years. We have also launched and revised our programs and service content at appropriate times so that visitors can benefit the most from our services. In this new issue of “Booking Service Guide for Visits”, the “Basic Guided Visit” and “Special Guided Visit” are maintained. For the Postal/Philately Gallery, there are 23 thematic guided visits under the areas of “History of Macao Post”, “Foundations of Communication”, “Postal Service”, “Stamps and Collection” and “General Mathematics”, as well as 3 hands-on workshops. For the Telecommunications Gallery, there are 6 thematic guided visits under the areas of “Electromagnetism”, “Transmission and Broadcasting” and “Telegraph and Telephone”. Besides, there are also 7 science demonstrations, 21 workshops and 8 electronic circuit courses. Schools and teachers are welcomed to select the programs most suitable for their students. Till to the end of year 2015, the museum recorded a total booking of 5,012 guided tours, workshops, electronic circuit courses and services provided at the schools. In the activities we organize or co organize with other government departments and associations, such as the Electronic Device Construction Competition, Science and Arts Activity for Primary Students, Stamp Poll - My Favourite Stamps of Macao, Draw My Story of Stamps Contest, Summer Activities, Science Express Camp, etc, we have witnessed a steady growth in the number of participants. This recognition from schools and the community gives us tremendous encouragement. No matter whether we are complementing formal education of schools, or stirring interest of participants in extra-curricular activities, we shall continue to be active and work hard in our role by organizing more activities related to science popularization and stamps appreciation that are suitable for children, teenagers and families.
