We have over 30 curriculum linked programmes that can be run within the Museum or at sites throughout the Central South Island.


Important Notice: The Museum will be closed from 19 July as we transition to a new home. Education programmes will continue off-site or in schools during Terms 3 and 4, plus Term 1 of 2027 – but programmes may be limited. Teachers, please reach out and we can discuss your needs. Find out more about these changes here.


Our programmes are free, flexible and fun.
