WHALE TALES ART TRAIL, AUCKLAND 2022

Bachmann Orthodontics

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: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
