The Warehouse Wellington Zoofari welcomes Ngati Toa School

170 students from Ngati Toa School in Porirua will visit Wellington Zoo next week as part of The Warehouse WellingtonZoofari programme, on Monday 4 May and Tuesday 5 May.

The Warehouse Wellington Zoofari is a three-year partnership between Wellington Zoo and The Warehouse with the aim to help local low-decile schools experience conservation-based learning programmes at the Zoo.

The Warehouse’s Wellington region stores raised nearly $26,500 through in-store fundraising in September 2014 to cover the costs of school visits and transport to Wellington Zoo. Approximately 1,800 students from 13 schools from the Wellington and Tasman regions will take part in The Warehouse Wellington Zoofari this year.

NZ Bus supports the programme by providing discounted transport for participating schools to and from Wellington Zoo.
