Museum visitor experience and science engagement director Dr Craig Grant said the museum's popular "Far From Frozen" exhibition would feature in the educational trip to schools in Tonga, and later in Fiji and Samoa.
He was "really excited" about the latest initiative, which also involved three University of Otago staff, and was backed by a $27,500 Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade grant to help with transport costs.
This follows a successful "Far From Frozen" showcase visit to schools on Niue and the Cook Islands last year.
