A Pukeko in a Ponga Tree

Kaikohe West School made a Pukeko in a Ponga Tree for Santaś Grotto in Kaikohe. It was a collaborative effort between Rooms 5, 6, 13 and 15. Whaea Raewyn helped in Room 6 - we made 10 juicy fish heads, 5 big fat pigs and 4 huhu grubs. They looked amazing! You can visit Santaś grotto between 10am and 2pm until December 23rd.
