Our visitors love our fun activity sheets, well now you’ll be able to design your very own. When visiting the Aquarium between 1 December and 25 January have fun creating your own quiz, enter it in the draw and it might be chosen for other visitors to enjoy in February and March. Each ‘My Quiz’ activity sheet submitted will go in the draw for a Child Friend of Aquarium Membership.
Now we’re in COVID-19 Alert Level 1, we’re pleased to advise that shark feeding in the main oceanarium recommences for visitors to enjoy every day at 2pm, along with our interactive activities available throughout the aquarium. Bookings are also open for our popular Little Penguin Close Encounters. Bookings for these encounters are essential and can be made through our website. As always, the safety and wellbeing of our customers, team members and communities continues to be our top priority. We want to assure you that we’re taking the necessary precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19 as outlined in the Ministry of Health and government guidelines. We look forward seeing you soon.
