Enviro Schools Hui

On Thursday the 23^rd of October all the Enviro schools came to Te Anau for a Hui. First of all Kids Restore the Kepler did a speech, secondly we split up in our groups for a tour of the bird park. In the duck enclosure there were two goose nests with eggs. Then we went to see the kaka. The kaka eats kowhai leaves. After that we jumped into the cars and went to the Kepler track. At the track we did all sorts of fun activities like the blind game when a buddy guides you to a tree blindfolded and then you have to find it again with no blindfold. Then we learnt to use a tracking transmitter and find birds. We meet Billy the stoat again and set off a stoat trap. Then we walked deeper down then track to a huge tree. We got back to the car park and did some trading. We traded honey for a bird nesting box and Snapdragons for a corrugated iron bird. We finished and everyone went home.  It was a very enjoyable day. We are looking forward to the next hui.
