KIA ORA FROM THE PUKEKO AND KAKA ROOM
The purchase of some new outdoor equipment has provided lots of opportunities for the Kākā and Pukeko tāmariki to extend their physical play.
From learning to swing on a trapeze, to balancing on tight ropes, to rocking in the new rocking board. As well as learning to take risks and coordinate their balance when learning how to jump from a high box top to land on big open colourful mats.
