The Warehouse Wellington Zoofari welcomes Windley School

335 students from Windley School in Porirua will visit Wellington Zoo next week as part of The Warehouse WellingtonZoofari programme, on Monday 30 March, Wednesday 1 April and Thursday 2 April.

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.

Full list of schools participating in the 2015 Warehouse Wellington Zoofari programme: Epuni Primary, Rata Street School, Naenae Intermediate and Taita Central School from Lower Hutt; Maoribank School from Upper Hutt; Titahi Bay North School, Ngati Toa School, Glenview School, Natone Park School, and Windley School from Porirua; Otaki Primary and Te Kura-a-iwi o Whakatupuranga Rua Mano from Otaki; and Parklands School from Motueka.
