Just Reuse! on campus

If you can't reuse it then refuse it - join us in saying 'yes' to reusable cups on campus.

Te Herenga Waka is committed to making change, to normalising reuse, to taking responsibility for the long term impacts of our short term actions. Bring your own cup, make time to stay and drink your coffee in our local cafes, or use an Auraki returnable cup. Help save thousands of single use cups from landfill and reduce our waste.

Bring back mugs

If you have borrowed an Auraki cup please return it to the Auraki return stations located in the Hub outside the Lab, the Library, outside Louis' cafe, outside Swimsuit cafe (Alan MacDiarmid building) or in Kirk building (Level 3). Thank you.

Thank you

This initiative would not be possible without the support of the retailers on-campus: The Hunter Lounge, The Lab, Louis' Cafe, Milk & Honey, and Swimsuit.

Thanks also to our friends at Takeaway Throwaways for helping us normalise reuse. We also wish to thank Trash Palace, Porirua, for providing cups for us in the past.
