Late Fridays at the Zoo

Ash Howell from Wellington Zoo

Ever wondered what happens at Wellington Zoo as the sun goes down?

Throughout March the Zoo will remain open until 7.30pm every Friday, giving you the opportunity to experience the Zoo at dusk. On late Fridays, Zoo entry will be half price at 4pm or later.

Visitors will be able to enjoy the full Zoo experience, with special animal talks as well as evening Close Encounters available each Friday - but be quick, limited spaces available!

Late Fridays at the Zoo starts on Friday 6 March and will continue on 13, 20 and 27 March.

Visit our website for more details and to book a Close Encounter: wellingtonzoo.com/late-night-fridays

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
