Today saw 41 students from Remarkables Primary explore the museum to learn about the past! They came well prepared with lots of excellent questions including - when did horses and sheep first come to NZ? what did miners do with their gold? what did people eat?

Students also survived a class with the VERY STRICT Miss Grey! Would you want her as your teacher? They walked down Buckingham Street examining the old buildings and finding out what they were used for in the past, can you remember where you would collect mail from? or send a telegram? what colour the post and telephone boxes where? where might you leave your horse for the night?

We hope you enjoyed your visit to the Museum and look forward to hearing about it on this blog!
