Flutter!

Come join us on Tuesday 23rd April at 11am for a very special puppet show by the extremely talented String Bean Puppets:
A short tailed bat who is afraid of the dark is befriended by a sparkly glow worm who thinks she is a star. The show is for 3-10 year olds. It's about overcoming your fears and includes some of Aotearoa's unique fauna and flora and the threats they face. The threat of introduced predators to our native species and the relationship between the short tailed bat and Te Pua o te Rēinga (Dactylanthus) is part of this story. The puppet show will be followed by a short talk from our Head Ranger about Te Pua o te Rēinga (Dactylanthus). Then we'll give you the opportunity to view this rare plant which is in flower at our reserve.

Entry to Flutter is by koha. For those wanting to see Te Pua o te Rēinga in flower, standard admission fees will apply.
