Education at Rotorua Museum Talk with the education team at Rotorua Museum, George and Rebecca. Rotorua Lakes Council's social media pages must not be used for electioneering purposes.

Since 1998 Rotorua Museum has held a contract with the Ministry of Education to offer ‘Learning Experiences Outside The Classroom’ (LEOTC), to students of all ages. Our popular service offers many interactive, curriculum-linked programmes based upon the museum’s permanent and changing exhibitions and the surrounding environment.The programmes cover science, social studies, art, history, geography, and tourism. These education programmes can be tailored to suit your student’s specific learning outcomes. Any post - positive or negative - made by any individual specifically relating to their own - or someone else's - nomination, intention to run for Council or election campaign, will be removed immediately.

Exciting news the 2027 Rotorua Museum Education booklets are in the post!
Featuring over 15 curriculum-linked, hands on programmes with learning experiences designed to resonate with your tamariki and rangatahi. In addition, we can tailor content and session length to meet your needs.

Enjoy, and we look forward to hosting your class soon.
