A memorial for Queen Elizabeth II was on display at the Museum following her passing. This tribute drew on the items in our Collection relating to the Queen’s visit to Cambridge on 1 Jan 1954.
It also looked at ways Queen Elizabeth II influenced our lives in Waipā, including the Queen’s signing of the Waikato Tainui Deed of Settlement in 1995.
