Museums
Our Te Awamutu museum collects and stores material telling the story of our history, society, culture and development of the Waipā district.
Established in 1935, the Te Awamutu Museum was the first within the Waikato and is a nationally-registered archival repository.
It offers education services for primary and secondary schools through the Learning Experiences Outside The Classroom programmes, an increasing variety of public programmes and workshops, as well as changing displays and exhibitions.
