National Partners

The House of Science has grown rapidly from our origins in Tauranga to a national organisation. This has been possible thanks to a generous partnership with the Wright Family Foundation, a charitable trust committed to the growth and development of all New Zealanders through education in various forms.

Since 2016 new House of Science resource kits are being developed in collaboration with ESR, AgResearch, the MacDiarmid institute and other national science organisations.
