New over the pool flying fox to take flight at SoundSplash!
Get excited, Te Manu Rere is almost ready to make a splash! The new flying fox at Coastlands Aquatic Centre will be taking off at this weekend’s SoundSplash event, and open during the school holiday SPLASH sessions. 💦🦅
Dubbed Te Manu Rere, the flying fox was given a thorough workout by our Chief Executive Darren Edwards and Mayor Janet Holborow last week and found to be an excellent addition to our awesome pool facility.
Te Manu Rere was installed as part of our 10-year celebrations for the Coastlands Aquatic Centre. To find out more about the celebrations and SoundSplash, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

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!
