Education at Te Ara Whānui ki te Rangi | Space Place


Education programmes at Te Ara Whānui ki te Rangi | Space Place include a planetarium show, learning experiences in our interactive galleries, and participation in an educator-led workshop. We offer learning experiences for ākonga of all ages. Our programmes enrich connections to the Pūtaiao | Science curriculum and a range of other learning areas.

Our learning programmes support ākonga to grow their science capabilities. This includes valuing mātauranga Māori and developing awareness of the interconnectedness between the natural and social world. Aspects of our Puanga ki Matariki | Connecting Space to Place and Te Ara Māwhitiwhiti | Star Path programmes can be delivered in reo Māori.
