Education at Rotorua Museum

Education at Rotorua Museum Talk with the educaton team at Rotorua Museum. George, Rebecca, Anna and Kristina.

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. Rotorua Lakes Council's social media pages must not be used for electioneering purposes. 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.
