Meet outside Ancestral Cafe on the North side of the Ernest Rutherford building to join University of Canterbury staff and students for a biodiversity ramble across the University campus to hunt out all things living.

You will be helping capture a snapshot of the wider Christchurch biota and contributing to the University’s research. You will most likely learn something interesting about the natural world alongside experts and experts in the making. This event is suitable for all ages and abilities.

UC is competing against Lincoln University in the first ever City Nature University Challenge, so a good turnout for this would be awesome, although anything you record on the UC campus during the full four days of the challenge will help us win.
