Kakapo Trip

Recently Room 8 and some other classes from Gore Main went to Invercargill to see Kakapo chicks that were being nurtured through the DEPT of Conservation.  It was a unique opportunity to see these highly endangered native birds of New Zealand.  We decided to make a day of it and visit Queen's Park and the Invercargill Public Library as well.  It was an amazing day!
We all enjoyed it immensely.  Thank you to the band of parent helpers that took groups around Queen's Park and looked after the student's well-being whilst out on a class trip.  Unfortunately the Kakapo chicks were asleep when it was Room 8's turn to view them.  We didn't really see much other than a small ball of green feathers, but nevertheless we enjoyed it anyway!  Here are some pictures from the trip!
