Caring for kararehe creatively these holidays! Join Auckland Zoo at your local library this summer, where we’ll be learning how to look after ourselves and our whānau, the animals at the Zoo... and what you could do for your pets at home!

Visitors to these free educational sessions will have the opportunity to reflect on how we care for living things using Te Whare Tapa Whā and the Five Domains of Animal Welfare models.

You’ll learn how to connect to the natural environment with a range of hands-on activities that help to translate curiosity and compassion into meaningful actions for te taiao. We will be experimenting with recycled and repurposed materials to create engaging enrichment items for animals to use. Whether you’re a pet owner or zoo fan, there will be something for everyone to get their paws stuck into!
