Fab day out at Pukaha Wildlife Centre
Take the whanau along these holidays and enjoy the great locals discount. Locals that live between Norsewood to Featherston can visit the reserve at HALF the normal entry fee under Pūkaha’s hapori (locals) rate. You just need a utilities bill to show where you live. If you have friends or family visiting bring a full paying visitor from outside the wider Tararua or Wairarapa region and your entry is FREE.
A reminder too to book the kids into the The Junior Rangers School Holiday Programme , includes lunch, and cool activities like bug hunting and prepping food for the Kākā.
Give your kids an educational adventure!
Running throughout January 2020 on Wednesdays and Fridays from 11am until 3pm. Places are limited so please phone Pūkaha on (06) 375 8004 to reserve a place for your child. Visit the website for more details.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
