The National Army Museum’s latest exhibition focuses on the fateful voyage of the Kiwi troopship TAHITI which sailed unknowingly into a global pandemic. The Death Ship: A Fateful Voyage is an interactive exhibition which turns the clock back more than 100 years to the flu pandemic that hit New Zealand in late 1918, a devastating blow at the end of WWI. The exhibition allows the visitor to ‘step aboard’ the TAHITI and experience how the conditions gave rise to the outbreak.

It’s that time of year again when we at Harcourts Taupō and the community work together to raise much needed funds to support and provide help to our local SPCA Taupō. We have a comprehensive list of prizes for those playing, along with great auction items and of course, closest to the pin and longest drive competitions. It would be great to see you out there; a fantastic opportunity to get out, hit a ball and have fun all day long.
