We will spend time in the museum before exploring multiple creative processes in Hīnātore, our learning lab.

Digital tools and processes available include: virtual reality, augmented reality, 3D design, robotics, block coding, image manipulation, stop motion animation, and green screen filming.

A learning specialist will be in touch prior to your visit to discuss a learning focus and establish classroom context to adapt this programme to your needs.

We will work with you to select the most appropriate digital tools and processes for your students and to share the creations for use at school.
