It was a cloudy, overcast morning when brrrm, we were off on our adventure to the Otorohanga Kiwi House. The bus trip was long and quite noisy. First we had our morning tea. We had to sit on a tarpaulin because the grass was muddy and wet.
After that Room Three went into an education room with steps leading up to it. A man named Scott was waiting for us to arrive. He had a lot of knowledge about the Kiwi. We know that the Kiwi is important to us here in New Zealand because they are native, which means they only live in New Zealand. There are many predators that like to eat the kiwi, this is why they are endangered.
Following that we got to see the Kiwi in a nocturnal tunnel. They were fenced off so that the Kiwi could not attack each other. They looked bigger than what we thought they would be.
Next we were very excited to find out where we were going. We arrived at the iconic big kiwi in Otorohanga. We had our photo taken with it.
Finally we travelled to Te Kuiti to have our lunch with the children at St Joseph's School. We got to play in their playground.
It was an exciting day and we were able to find out lots of new information.
