Led by the Waikereru Ecosanctuary Wild Lab Tiaki Taiao creative educators, Pete and Elle Jarrat, this is a creative outdoor education workshop, during which children will explore and celebrate rare and endangered species with a sense of wonder and fun.
Through ancestral knowledge, science, art and immersive experience, children begin to understand the challenges faced by indigenous plants and animals, and how to safeguard their future.
Workshop is suitable for ages 8 - 11.
Return bus transport from the iSite on Grey Street is included. Please be ready for a 9am departure, workshop will start at 9:30am.
Children need to wear and bring suitable outdoor footwear and clothing (including sun hat and rain jacket), and bring food and drink as they do on school days.
The 1769 Garden, designed by Philip Smith from O2 Landscapes, features plants that grew in the Tairāwhiti, and were familiar to local Māori at that time of Cook’s arrival and are typical of the thousands of specimens collected by naturalists Sir Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander.
The Garden is part of the Waikereru Ecosanctuary, a project initiated by Dame Anne and Jeremy Salmond.
