Te Tuna Tāone

Te Tuna Tāone is an action learning programme that works with schools in Ōtautahi/Christchurch to become kaitiaki and take action to improve the life of this taonga species, the longfin tuna/ eel.

Ōtautahi/Christchurch is a special city – with its springs/ ngā puna, it has sustained the mighty and beloved longfin tuna right in the heart of our urban area. However, with stormwater pollution, climate change and the destruction and degradation of their habitat, we need to take action now to care for these unique ‘Tuna Tāone’, or ‘Urban Eels’.
