The countdown to camp is now on! We're getting groups and activities organised and even planning what we're going to eat on the first night!
Today we started our Camp Unit. We are going to learn about the Abel Tasman National Park; its birdlife, native trees, early Maori settlement and even learn some first aid.
The first task we are going to tackle is learning about native birds found in the area.
Below is a selection of native birds found in the National Park
Bell birds
Fantail
Kaka
South Island Robin
Shining Cockoo (pīpīwharauroa)
Morepork
Wood pigeon
Tui
Weka
Little blue penguin
Pukeko
Use the links about Native Birds in our curriculum links section to work your way through the tasks, and research your bird. Remember to take note of what your bird looks like so you can draw a detailed & labelled picture.
I hope that everyone enjoys camp 2011!!! It is SO fun.
