We are the Yendarra Pukekos!



We are lucky to go to the best school in the world, we love it here! We are a hard-working, sensible class but we like to have fun too. This term we are learning all about kiwiana. We will share some of what we have learned in our blogs. Kiwiana is about all the things that are special to New Zealand. For example, kiwiana is jaffas and pavlaova, kiwis and pukekos, the buzzy bee, the All Blacks and the Haka. Next week we are going to be doing instruction writing so watch out for some cool and yummy kiwiana recipes we have written!

We are also learning different folk dances. Maybe we can make a movie of our favourite one if you'd like to see it? 

Please comment and tell us what you'd like us to share with you...

Love from the Pukekos x

  9. Hello everyone,
    On my first visit to New Zealand I saw some Pukekos and would like to know more about them.
    We are coming to New Zealand for Christmas this year, so would love to hear more about things that are special to New Zealanders.
