Volcanoes of Auckland

This section has been specially designed for school pupils studying the volcanoes of Auckland but should be of interest to everyone. As you work through the pages you will be taken on a journey, from the past and into the future of these fascinating structures of ours.

The section has been set up as part of our GIS in Schools project - one of the ARC's many community education programmes. It focuses on assisting pupils and teachers to start using Geographic Information Systems in the school curriculum.

We look forward to you sending us your comments, as we intend to continue developing this website as an information resource on natural hazards and their potential impacts on the way we live in Auckland.
