Children's Museum for Hamilton and the greater Waikato Area

Bruce from Maeroa

Hi, I am the author of the submission for a children’s museum based in Founders Theatre. I would like to discuss the ideas with local families to identify what things they might enjoy as well as opinions on the operation of the museum.
I am not looking for discussion on Founders per se, Hamilton Council is offering ample opportunity for that.
The children’s museum is heavily orientated to community and a place for families to enjoy themselves in an entertaining and educational way.
If you would like to share some ideas then email me at brucecresswell3@gmail.com and I will contact you to set up a convenient time to meet as well as send a copy of the submission (made to council) to you
Children’s museums are places where children learn through play and exploration in environments designed just for them. Reflecting their diverse communities, children’s museums create playful, interactive learning experiences. In an increasingly complex world, children’s museums provide a place where all kids can learn through play with the caring adults in their lives. Most exhibits allow visitor handling creating entertaining and educational opportunities largely without the use of technology.

What do you think of this 11-year-old's chosen cause?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Whangamatā 11-year-old has placed his award-winning mullet up for auction to raise money for Starship Hospital.

Kahū Hall, who named himself ‘Taco’ when he was three years old, is selling his mullet after growing it for three years. Taco said he was motivated to raise the money after his friend Evie Taylor stayed at Starship Hospital for a heart operation.
