The vision for Takapuna Winter Lights 2024 is for students of all ages to participate in and engage with art at a community level, with a strong focus on education around our chosen theme. “Rere Pūrerehua” features the students from Takapuna Primary School, Belmont Primary School, Campbell’s Bay ELC and Northcote Early Learning Centre, who created pictures of Butterflies, which were scanned and transformed into an animated projection. Learning was in three parts: biology, art and Te Reo, bringing together science, art and language. ‘Rere Pūrerehua’ which means ‘Butterfly Flight’, showcases a magical world, filled with colour and life.
