Onehunga's Changing Foreshore - a photographic exhibition
Don’t miss out! It is the final two days to see this fantastic Auckland Heritage Festival exhibition; “Onehunga’s Changing Foreshore”.
Here’s what visitors to the exhibition have been saying
- “Wow, fantastic images, this is an incredible display”
- “The best Heritage Festival exhibition I’ve seen”
- “I never knew Onehunga had changed so much”
- “This has really brought back some memories, it is wonderful”
Over 150 pictures are on display showing Onehunga since the 1850s, including some beautiful large panoramas, indicating just what Onehunga has lost and how industry and roading have shaped the foreshores. Many of these pictures have been digitally restored to a high quality, to truly enhance this exhibition.
This is your final chance to see this fantastic exhibition so don’t delay, get down to the Aotea Sea Scouts building this weekend and ensure you don’t miss out.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
