Takahe Visit


On Thursday the 13th of March Room12 walked down to the bird park to learn about and feed the Takahe.

As well as seeing the Takahe we went to see all the other birds like geese, ducks, morepork kaka and kea.

The class split up into 2 groups and hid the kea and kaka food half of us fed the kea and the rest of us fed the kaka.

On the 28th of March we found out that Te Anau School was adopting a Takahe.  Our school held a mufti day to raise money to feed the chick.  We got to choose a name for the Takahe.  We named him Murchison or Murchy for short. We named him this after the mountain range where the Takahe were rediscovered.
