Out and About | A Day in the Waitākere Ranges

Jun 14, 2025 | Sport and Outdoor Education, 2025 Archive

Last week, students had the chance to step out of the classroom and into the ngahere with a visit to the Arataki Visitor Centre. They spent time walking in the bush, exploring the exhibitions, and taking in the views across the Waitākere Ranges. The outing was a good reminder of how much learning happens simply by being out in the world, observing, asking questions, and seeing things from a different perspective.
