There are lots of ways you can get involved. What you do depends on your interest and time.

Register for the Kererü Discovery Project - click here. Our project is a partnership of 5 Wellington organisations and aims to build a sustainable environment for kererü and for our community. Project registrants can let us know about sightings of kererü via our on-line sightings form. You can also upload photos and videos of kererü or see where other people have spotted kererü on the latest sightings page all from the Home page. This information is being used to build a database which will assist researchers to gather more knowledge on the behaviour of kererü.

School kids have helped the university researchers to track kererü in the wild and gardeners around the city have started thinking more carefully about how to support kererü in an urban setting.

You can read more about our project here.

Visit one of our education programmes with your school. Kids aged 3-12 can take part in education programmes at Te Papa, Wellington Zoo and Karori Wildlife Sanctuary. The programmes offered by each organisation will be related, but each will cover a different part of the whole ecological story. You can choose to go to all or just one of the programmes.

Contribute from home. You can tell us what plants you have in your backyard or school by registering with us. Once you have registered you can let us know when and where you have seen kerer? by logging in and filling in our online sighting form .
