Bookings now open for Pūkaha Junior Rangers!

The Team from Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre

Bookings are once again open for Pūkaha Junior Rangers - our April School Holiday Programme.

It will run daily throughout the 19th-23rd, and 27th – 30th of April 2021.

Junior Rangers provides 5-14 year olds with learning and hands-on-education set amongst Pūkaha’s forested outdoor nature reserve. Junior Rangers get up close to wildlife and get to feed the tuna (long-finned eels). They also learn about the ngahere (forest) and how the captive breeding programme at Pūkaha is helping to protect and restore Aotearoa's precious native species. Fun and educational.

Just $30 per child, per day, or $27 for members.

Price includes lunch (we cater for all diets).

Book online to secure your spot - pukaha.org.nz...
or call us for more information (06) 375 8004
