Kelston is situated in the residential suburb of Auckland, New Zealand. Originally a ceramic manufacturing centre, the area is now largely residential, with a variety of schools. Kelston is situated in and named after the Kelston Parliamentary Electorate.
At the 2018 New Zealand census, Kelston, including the statistical areas of Kelston North and Kelston South, had a population of 5,355.
Ethnicities were 29.6 percent European/Pākehā, 16.0 percent Māori, 35.9 percent Pacific, 34.1 percent Asian and 3.5 percent other ethnicities (totals add to more than 100 percent since people could identify with multiple ethnicities).
Kelston Boys' High School is an all-boys state secondary school in Kelston with an enrollment of 672 students. While the school is renowned for the strength of its numerous sports teams, it has also had some remarkable successes in music, dance and theatre, and has provided some excellent academic results.
Kelston Girls' College (KGC) is a single-sex state secondary school for girls in Kelston. It was established in 1963 when the Kelston High School roll became too big for the site on the corner of Archibald and the Great North Roads.
The Kelston Deaf Education Center is located in Archibald Lane, New Lynn, Auckland, New Zealand. It is a private special school for deaf children as well as a resource center offering resources and support to mainstream students and their teachers.

White Track rises about 200 metres up a ridge that overlooks North Piha. It starts from the end of the short Marawhara Track and takes you up to Anawhata Road. The track takes you through recovering native forest, with the lower sections dominated by nikau palms. As you get higher there are several places where it opens up with views over Piha Valley and back to the beach. There are a lot of steps, although the climb is mostly relatively gradual.
Towards the top of the ridge, take the left turn through the kauri protection cleaning station out onto the right of way to get to the road. Walk just a few metres along the road to the west to access a second right of way that takes you down to Te Waha Point between Piha and Whites Beach.

The Devonport ferry terminal is at the south end of Devonport village. There are coastal promenades and small beaches on either side of the terminal, but the immediate attraction is the village. Devonport is one of the older Auckland suburbs and has retained much of its early Victorian and Edwardian character. In addition it has one of the largest Moreton Bay fig trees you will see in Auckland, in the park on the right just before you get to the shops.
The village has a range of cafes, restaurants and other shops and an art deco era cinema, as well as a war memorial and a couple of outdoor sculptures. It is the perfect place to start and end your visit to the peninsula.

Two hours south of Auckland lies the lush farmland of Hobbiton Movie Set(opens in new window); it has more than 44 unique hobbit holes, including Bag End (Bilbo's house). As you wander through the heart of the Shire, you'll get to hear the fascinating commentary about how it was all created.
Along your journey you'll see the mill, the double arched bridge and the famous Party Tree before stopping for a drink at the Green Dragon™ Inn. Evening tours are also available, and they include a feast fit for a hobbit!
A number of great farmstays are also on offer in Matamata. Just east of town you can discover the North Island’s highest waterfalls, Wairere Falls, which are a spectacular sight plunging 153m. The Wairere Falls walking track showcases a diverse range of natural scenery and from the lookout you can enjoy magnificent views over the valley and the Waikato Plains.
Matamata is situated 2 hours' drive from Auckland, 45 minutes from Hamilton and 1 hour from Rotorua.

22 years ago, the Hauraki Gulf became our first marine reserve. This ended up meaning, well nothing. Apart from a few pockets of protection zones, commercial and recreational fishing were allowed to continue
Now in 2022, the Hauraki Gulf is facing a near ecosystem collapse
A State of our Gulf report is produced every three years, and every report has warned that we are basically creating a barren wasteland out of this once rich diverse marine area. Crayfish once one of the most abundant species in the area, now are functional extinct in some areas of the gulf. A recent Niwa scallop survey showed that 93 per cent of the Hauraki Gulf's scallop population has disappeared in the last 10 years. Most species have been fished to low levels (20% or less of previous abundance.)
We have essentially eaten the gulf to death
This is not an anomaly. New Zealand oceans are in dire straits due to overfishing, pollution and climate change
At the moment, only 0.3 percent of our oceans are protected through marine reserves
You can help protect our oceans and push our government to create more marine protected areas (MPAs)
🖋Check out the petition by Our Seas Our Future who are calling for 30% of New Zealand’s oceans as Marine Reserves by 2030
🌿Cut out or reduce fish from your diet or if you are not open to this, stop eating fish that isn’t certified and proven beyond shadow of doubt to be part of a sustainable supply chain
💛Do not vilify people - This is a complex issue - many people rely on fishing for their livelihoods and approximately 3 billion people in the world rely on wild-caught and farmed seafood as a primary source of protein. Vilifying people who are trying to make a living, or feed themselves, - well this is not going to incite postive change nor get oceans protected

Mum said that the early worm eats a bunch of birds…or something - I wasn’t really listening 😁
Yesterday me and mum dropped dad off early for a fishing trip and so we walked along the waterfront here in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland before the sun got too hot and before there were too many people around. Mum isn’t really much of a morning person, but it was really nice!
Are your parents more early birds or night owls? 🐦🦉

Hi furriends & Happy #tuxedothursday. My job as a tuxedofeatures admin gives me the wonderful oppurrtunity to meet meowvelous #tuxies from all over the world 🌏. Today I was fortunate enough to get to interview the pawdorable Havie (haviethetuxie). We caught up on Cat Chat & I heard her story.
.
"Hi! My name is Havie, and I'm 5 months old. I grew up with 7 other cats before joining my furrever home so I’m always seeking cat companions. I get my silky lush coat and possum-like tail from my Mama who is a beautiful Ragdoll. I live in Auckland, New Zealand. I love to play with my toys, in particular ‘Fishy’ and any pens lying around the house. I like nibbling on ankles & toes and latching around calf muscles."
.
Havie told me that she's a very vociferous kitty, "My hooman is quiet. I am not. My voice is louder than theirs. I like to chat and gossip all day long! If I see a bug outside, I run inside to tell my hooman."
.
We discussed our favorite snacks, and Havie has a local treat that she raved about, "My favourite treat is a ‘Meow’ chicken and king salmon cat bite made in NZ by petconnect.nz. Yum!" But she & the hooman don't always see eye to eye on portion sizes, "My hooman only gives me 2 treats at a time so I cry and she always gives in and gives me 2 more. 😺"
.
She ended the interview by telling me about how furriendly she can be, "My hooman lives on their own; however when they have visitors, I always greet them at the door.💛"
.
I hope that you will all go checkout this meowgnificent cutie, and show her some #tuxedofeatures family love!

The access to Tasman Lookout Track is at the southend of Piha Beach, next to the carpark below the cliff. This is a narrow track that heads up the side of the cliff, with safety rails in one section where there is an especially steep drop. There are great views of Lion Rock as you head up, but right at the top on the edge of the cliff, there is an excellent viewpoint, with a stone wall, that looks over much of the beach, Taitomo Island and around to The Gap. A perfect place for sunset and watching surfers at the south end of the beach.
Continue along the track beyond the viewpoint to a second with a better view of The Gap and Taitomo Island. The track terminates at beach level behind The Gap and you can easily walk back around the sand between the Island and the cliff to Piha Beach as the tide goes out.

One small thing I've grown to love about photography is how it opens you up to notice tiny details every time you find yourself outside. The way the light hits a tree. How mountains glow in the morning. All those little things you can easily miss when your mind is somewhere else. A gratitude for the place your feet have taken you to.
📍Bay of Islands

Auckland is best known as the "city of sails", but it could equally be the "city of parks". The 10 pics are from 10 of the over 4,000 parks in the city. Some are parks based on maunga (volcanic peaks), one is from the Auckland Botanical Gardens in South Auckland, and two are from small natural lakes within the city, Western Springs and Orakei.
The curious eel heads can be found at Tui Glen Reserve in West Auckland and the tree pic is just the centre section of the extraordinary sprawling pohutukawa tree that can be found near the Parnell Rose Gardens. This is the biggest pohutukawa in NZ.
In addition to the many obvious city parks, there are over 30 much larger regional parks. These are typically located around the edge of the city, either on the coast or the remaining forested areas in the Waitakere Range and Hunua Range.
