Magical Park EverGreen

Selwyn District Council from Selwyn District Council

Celebrate Parks Week with Magical Parks!

For Parks Week 2018 (10–18 March 2018), an exciting new augmented reality game with a environmental twist – EverGreen – is available at Lincoln Domain.

Turning recycling and rubbish collection into a fun and exciting game for kids rewards them for being responsible for their environment. The game teaches kids how to recycle rubbish by feeding different types of waste to the right tree. There is a lot of activity involved and as the kids pick up the virtual rubbish, the park gets greener and greener.

The New Zealand Recreation Association and Parks and Leisure Australia have again teamed up to help organise Parks Week. The week encourages councils and other organisations on both sides of the Tasman to run engaging events to raise awareness of the value of parks and open spaces, and to get people out of their living rooms and enjoying the outdoors.

EverGreen does that by encouraging kids and families to get out and explore their local parks whilst learning the fundamentals of recycling.

The average playing time of the game is 30–60 minutes with an average distance of 700–2000m covered.

There are also other Magical Parks games to choose from at Lincoln Domain:
· Augmentia – find kittens
· Prehistoria – collect dinosaur eggs
· Alien Scape – save aliens

Download the app on Android and iPhone and follow the in-game instructions. EverGreen will be available on the app until Sunday 25 March.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
