Event Tip
From 24 January- 18 April 2022, a trail of unique and stunning Whale Tail Sculptures, designed by artists and children.
Inspired by the Bryde’s Whale, the 80 Big Broos (large Tail sculptures) and 80 Pēpi (mini Tail sculptures) will dot Auckland’s streets, parks, and open spaces to provide residents and visitors with a fresh opportunity to explore the City of Sails.
Fantastic and a big, big smile
Did you know?
Blue whales are the largest animals alive today, and they have no teeth to eat food! So instead, blue whales are filter feeders. There are a total of 15 types of whales that eat this way. These species are known as Baleen whales because they have baleen plates instead of teeth.
However, we also did a small Whale Tales Art Gallery inspired by this outstanding exhibition.
Exploring these artistic Tales at the Whale Trail Auckland is a great idea. whaletales2022.org...
What can we do to make you smile?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
