School Visits
We welcome children of all ages and offer visiting school groups to the museum a wide range of programmes inspired by local history and issues, current art exhibitions and museum displays.
Our programmes are linked to the New Zealand curriculum documents, contain creative learning opportunities, encourage cooperative learning and have achievable outcomes for all students.
These programmes are extremely well-priced at only $2 per student. Adults accompanying groups enter the museum for free.
