Natural History
The Natural History galleries are all situated on Level 1.
They tell New Zealands evolutionary story and describe our unique environment from mountain top to the ocean depths. Completing our Natural history story is Volcanoes, the highly interactive permanent gallery examining their scientific and human impact.
Level 1 also contains the two hands-on, child centred Stevenson Discovery Centres (Treasures & Tales and Weird & Wonderful) where learning and fun go hand-in-hand. |
