Print a passport

Print off a passport and follow the easy instructions to make your own. You can collect stamps on the one-page passport if you don't want to print out the whole booklet. There are Te Reo Māori versions, too.

Love where you live

The passport is aimed at encouraging locals to get outdoors, to love where you live, and have fun. However there are some serious reasons behind it.

Getting outside is good for everyone's mental health and activity levels. Unstructured, outdoor play is also important for children's development and could have positive environmental benefits in future.

By getting our children outdoors, they have fun, take risks and exercise without even noticing it. Additionally, the hope is that they develop a sense of adventure and a love of nature and exploring. The next generation has significant environmental issues to address. If they grow up feeling connected to nature, they may just have the passion and drive to tackle these problems successfully.
