Some beautiful and real quality Maori artefacts. Great presentation of information, The scale models of the area were interesting and loved the Soldiers Uniform and Woman's dress. Would have liked to see some more history relating to other aspects of this area though, like the farming. Is a small museum but still this was a worthwhile visit and free.

Powerful experience following the Te Ara Wai journey into our local history. Thank you Te Awamutu Museum for your passion and your resources. And for introducing us to the phenomenal Uenuku. We will not forget.

A brilliant museum that tells local stories well. Waipa district has some history to share of national significance too. Well set up for school groups of all levels and staffed by knowledgeable but open curators. Worth a visit.

the lady at the front desk was rude and disrespectful. Our group felt like they were not welcome as she asked how many of us were there and how much money we had. Then she watched and followed us around. All the while telling us not to touch, not to take photos and where not to go. Beautiful treasures but we couldn't enjoy them. The council needs to teach their staff common courtesy and people skills

Great museum, staff were very informative. I would definitely go again. A great place to take a school as they are passionate about their history and you can see the places they are talkn about.

I took my two mokopunas here as they were on holiday from Auckland. What a lovely welcome from staff. One of my mokos (bailee) entered the matariki competition... she was so excited to be there. Anyway...she asked me..when do I get my prize?" I explained that the winner is drawn an we don't know who will win. She replied "Oh

Outstanding for a local Museum, covering regional history. Centre piece is Uenuku, a nationally important Tainui carving that had been lost for generations. Worth a journey.

Museum is not a museum. They only have reading and education material for students. They have non of their actual treasures on display due to a fire that happened. They also won't tell you what happened to the things or how and when they will let the public see them.They just hang up on honest people asking questions
