Te Wharekura, Auckland Council, Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei: Website Rebuild, Events & Bookings

The Brief

About the client

Te Wharekura delivers cultural experiences and education in Tāmaki Makaurau with partners Auckland Council and Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei.  

What they needed & why

A fast rebuild of the old site, a public phone line not tied to staff mobiles, confidence for kaimahi to update content, and a simple bookings flow for tours.  

What We Delivered

Website rebuild & launch

Built a new site from the ground up and went live in eight days, with a clean structure and performance tidy-ups.  

Events that show only when relevant

Added an Events section that auto-displays upcoming kaupapa and hides itself (and menu items) when there’s nothing on, keeping the site tidy.  

Bookings phone line via ConnectHub

Set up a public bookings number routed to available kaimahi, with call distribution, status control, and recordings for QA.  

Online bookings system

Created a calendar-based enquiry/booking flow with post-visit review requests, so the journey is clear end-to-end.  

The Impact

Speed to value

Rebuilt and launched in eight days, hitting scope and staying in budget.  

Cleaner comms

One public number with routing to available staff and full traceability.  

Tidy user experience

Events only appear when relevant — no empty pages or dead menus.  

Simple funnel

Enquiry → booking capture → post-visit review, with updates the client can manage.  

Client Feedback

" "Hono rebuilt our website fast, sorted the phones, and made bookings easy. Our whānau can find us, and our kaimahi can keep it updated." "
