Te Āhua o te Haenga | Pollination in Motion

Step into the colourful, buzzing world of pollination! Join the Wellington Gardens Education Team for a day of hands-on fun exploring how plants and pollinators work together to keep nature thriving.

Meet the Beekeepers – Learn how bees keep the hive running, why they’re super pollinators, and try on real beekeeper gear

Sensory Pollination Play Station – Transfer “pollen” between flowers in a fun sensory tray

Outdoor Pollinator Bingo Trail – Explore the gardens to spot different pollinators

Wind Pollination Station – Make mini fans and paper “pollen” to see how the wind carries pollen from one plant to another

Bring the whānau, follow the buzz, and leave with a new appreciation for the small creatures (and breezes!) that make big things happen.

This event is part of the Wellington Gardens Te Wā o te Kōanga - Spring Festival 2025. Join us in celebrating spring with free events throughout September. Full line-up on our website.
