Studies:
With a park guide, we stroll through areas of New Zealand native bush and various compounds seeing rare endangered animals and plants.  We investigate the threats to them now and explore the conservation programs in place to help them survive.

Here too we can investigate the plants that early Stone Age Maori used to build their homes, make their clothes, weapons and tools.

"I saw my first Kiwi, and it hops like a rabbit with stalky feet and feathers!"
