29 April 2011 - High Tea Fit for a Queen... Or her mother

Mum's the word this Mother's Day, treat your mum to MOTAT's Mother's Day Tea Party served up with memories you can both share.

The day will feature a host of activities for mum to enjoy, including a guest appearance by Matt Greenwood ‘The Bell Tea Guy', learn all about tea tasting, tea rituals and tea blending from the only master tea taster in New Zealand.

There is also the ‘A Teaspoon per Cup and One for the Pot' tea exhibition and tours available for those keen to learn more about this ancient art, double decker tram rides, live music and the chance for mum to make and take home her own cup and saucer bird feeder. For those interested on the finer points of enjoying a ‘cuppa', there's even a ‘tea etiquette' class.

High teas and Devonshire teas will also be available for purchase on the day.
