Students from Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Wairarapa school share their experience exploring the outdoors at the Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre - feeding eels (tuna), listening for the calls of the Morepork owl (Ruru) and Kiwis, among other adventures.
The overnight stay at Te Whare Taiao o Manukura in the heart of a 942-hectare native forest (ngahere) at the Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre is a special opportunity for youth to be inspired by outdoor learning, with many saying they would like to become true guardians of Te Taiao (the environment) & connect with the mauri (life force) of the forest.
The Ruamahanga Restoration Trust's SCHOOLS BEHIND OUR RIVER project helps fund field school trips like this one as a way to inspire local youth to experience the outdoors and to appreciate Nature, Mātauranga Māori, and the importance of protecting our biodiversity.
Special thanks to ONE FOUNDATION and NIKAU FOUNDATION for their support.
