School visits

Our team of Youth Programme Specialists have designed an exciting suite of fun, hands-on learning opportunities for your school.

All sessions are literacy-based, but take a multi-curricular approach.  Each session aims to enrich big picture ideas with local context.

Choose between a curriculum-aligned discovery session, a story and browse session or a self-guided visit. See full session descriptions (63kb pdf).

If you are visiting our central location, Te Ao Mārama – Tauranga Library, you may be eligible for a bus transportation subsidy.

To assist learners who can find new spaces, sights and sounds overwhelming, we have sensory backpacks and social stories available for each of our libraries to familiarise your students with the spaces prior to your visits. Download yours here:
