Find a Story - two sessions: 10am and 11am

Find a story. Join the adventure exploring one of Maui’s tales that lives and is held within the children’s garden of the Botanic Gardens. This 45-minute session is a playful space for kōrero, imagining, and creating—where tamariki can follow the trail of a living story and find one of their own to take home in a book to draw, write, and fill with wonder.

Two FREE sessions are available and booking is essential as spaces are limited. Please register your place via https://events.humanitix.com/find-a-story-creative-playshops-at-the-botanic-gardens-oct-school-holidays
