Waihopai Playcentre Kids Explore Nature

The Southland Community Nursery is a busy place these days with lots of visitors enjoying the tracks through the bush and wetlands, the plant nursery facilities and the education centre. Recently the Waihopai Playcentre visited, with children and parents enjoying the sensory scavenger hunt looking for an assortment of coloured, textured, scented things along the track, exploring the “hide” and looking for insects, frogs and lizards. Back at the education centre they potted up seedlings and had morning tea. A fun experience learning about nature.
