Notes
The Kiwi Conservation Club is a Forest and Bird project for children to help them learn more about our country’s plants and wildlife. Each issue is full of information, stories, puzzles, and activities to make learning fun! There is also a website which has been developed for members of the Club and all other children who would like to learn more about New Zealand’s wildlife and wild places, and how to care for and protect the natural world. It includes full text fact sheets on native animals, plants and conservation issues and resources for teachers.
