Moa bones on display at Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre
How cool! Pūkaha have unveiled a rare display of moa bones at its Visitor Centre this week - perfect timing for the School Holidays.
The Moa hakahaka (Euryapteryx curtus) or Coastal moa bones have been loaned to Pūkaha by a local man, who found them on a Wairarapa farm in the 1970’s. The bones on display are from both legs including the tibia, fibula and foot bones.
This is a great activity to recommend to your visitors. People can view the Moa bones for free in the Pūkaha Visitor Centre. The Centre is open 9am–5pm seven days a week. Moa books for adults and children, soft toys, puzzles and games can be purchased with all proceeds contributing to the conservation mahi (work) at Pūkaha.
There is plenty on for families in the Wairarapa for the School Holidays, take a look here. wairarapanz.com...

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Builder Wanted or seeking builder (LBP).
We are looking for a semi-retired builder or solo LBP to supervise / co-work with me while I undertake an extension project as a self-build . Rates to be negotiated prior to commencement. Currently in the design stage at present with Architect. I have experience from past house builds so not a raw beginner, both in design and construction.
Thanks Phil
