Holiday programmes take to the skies in the Far North
School holiday programmes are taking kids skywards over the next two weeks in council libraries and Te Ahu Museum. Find out what it's all about here.
Far North libraries and Te Ahu Museum are taking kids to the skies these school holidays.
Holiday programmes starting today (Monday 3 October), run for two weeks and include collaborate art sessions with a hot air balloon installation, space themed green screen sessions as well as a lego rocket launch challenge and other lego challenges.
A highlight of the ‘Up, up and away’ programme at Te Ahu Museum is a day of kite and glider making with Harko Brown on Tuesday 4 October from 9.30am. Matua Brown is an education consultant, author and facilitator of Ngā Taonga Tākaro (Traditional Maori Games including artefacts, protocols & rituals). Other free activities there include a puzzle and game zone for the 5 to 11 year-olds, every weekday from 10.30.
A programme for the summer and Christmas holidays will be released in November.
