Education with Altitude

Planning a school trip or learning experience outside the classroom? Give your class the ultimate learning experience 186 metres up in the Sky Tower - the highest classroom in New Zealand. Your visit includes a fully facilitated class tour with our experienced Sky Tower Educator. A class visit up Sky Tower is an amazing educational experience – loved by students and teachers alike! 

With discounted admission rates and excellent teacher resources, the programme provides teachers with unlimited opportunities to stimulate and extend their students knowledge in a range of cross-curriculum fields.

Group tours aid in teaching students first hand about what they have been learning in the classroom. An added feature of the tour involves visiting the Refuge area of the Tower, where students learn about safety procedures.
