WE’RE ON A JOURNEY TO RELOCATE & RESTORE A PIECE OF HUNTLY HISTORY.

The original Huntly Railway Station is being given a new lease on life by Waikato District Council and design and construction partners. Once the relocation and restoration is complete, the building will be handed over to the Huntly Museum.

HOWEVER, WE’VE HAD AN
UNFORTUNATE SETBACK

The night we moved the station to its new foundations, disaster struck as the first half of the station was set alight.
With a passionate team who have already committed so much hard work and effort to this project, we will carry on as planned, holding our heads high to get the job done.
However, after suffering so much damage, the project will continue at an increased cost and slower rate.

THIS IS WHERE WE NEED YOUR HELP.

We’re calling on the passionate and resilient communities across Aotearoa to help us pick up the pieces and complete this project.
If you can spare any donation, no matter the size, it will help us get back on our feet and complete this project for our thriving community.
We have the best supporters – thanks Sharyn Affleck for setting this up and to the amazing people who have donated already.
The Museum Committee will continue to oversee the creation of a stunning multi-functional facility featuring a museum, art gallery and community space that reflects the cultural and historic significance of Raahui Pookeka/Huntly.
