Te Wharekura
We're thrilled to share the grand opening of Te Wharekura! This 108-year-old heritage kiosk has undergone a remarkable transformation, now reborn as a new cultural and marine education space. 🌟 🎉
This exciting project, which we've developed in partnership with Ngāti Whātua Ōrakei, celebrates tangata whenua and is designed to encourage kōrero about the state of the environment and the cultural richness of Te Waitematā.
Artists: Senior Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei ringatoi, Graham Tipene, Hana Maihi, Jodi-Ann Warbrick, Leah Warbrick, Joanne Maihi and Kororia Witika.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
