About:
About Kiwi North is home to the only Kiwi House in Northland, the Whangarei Museum and Heritage Park. We are in Maunu, Whangarei, New Zealand. We are open every day 10.00 am - 4.00 pm except Christmas & Boxing Day. Come and see us soon! Mission To acquire and care for collections with a natural and human history focus reflecting the interaction between natural and human history in Northland Make these collections accessible to our community through research, displays, special exhibitions and events which are relevant, informative, educational inspirational, enjoyable and fun. We are guided by the principles of: Guardianship Caring for our collections, culture, history and natural environment on behalf of our community Professionalism Achieving high ethical standards, honesty and integrity Sustainability Adopting sustainable financial, cultural, social and environmental practices Products The story so far… Kiwi North as a concept was launched in 2008 with a grand vision for a substantial building programme to bring Whangarei Museum and all its facilities into the 21st Century. Nearly $1 million was raised and all seemed rosy...then the financial crisis hit. Suddenly all the plans were jeopardised and promised sponsorship and backing receded with the shrinking economy. But, as the saying goes, "when the going gets tough...the tough get going"! We've re-thought our ideas and our strategy now is to stage the building works. So here we go with Stage 1! STAGE 1 PLANS: Completion of the new nocturnal kiwi house including an incubator room for hatching kiwi New tuatara and gecko enclosures New displays that entertain and inform visitors of native species protection and conservation An accessible front entrance A modern gift shop showcasing local art and a variety of New Zealand made souvenirs. Builidng is due to start this week, so follow our progress here on Facebook!
