Our previous Wildlife Science Champions Expos were a roaring success!

In 2023 and 2024, we held a conservation-science-focused careers expo, supported by our friends and partners at Mazda. This was designed to inspire the next generation and enable them to discover more about careers in science and conservation.

Our conservation learning team hosted hundreds of Year 11-13 ākonga from 12 schools across Auckland to learn about a variety of science-based careers and what they entail. This included a keynote speaker, panellists, workshops and stalls from industry experts that use science in their everyday mahi – everything from shark monitoring to bat artwork and all sorts in between.

We’d like to thank all the kura and schools who came along to our expo and made it such a great event!
