Penguin Boxes

Check out our Gisborne Herald article about our penguin boxes here

Our Inquiry Topic is: Actions Speak Louder than Words

This term we made Little blue penguin boxes because we want our penguins to have a better home.

We did this because we want little blue penguins to breed. Their population is going down to a lower rate.

We placed our Penguin boxes around Hamanatua Stream and Wainui. That's where the penguins breed.

To monitor our penguin boxes we open the lid to see if it has any penguins or eggs in it because we need them to have a better home.

Nga Manu Waiata will further support us by using traps to eradicate pests and bring more population to penguins!
