Did you know that the Pūtangitangi (Paradise Shelduck) is one of our only native birds to actually benefit from land clearance?
This pack has been assembled to celebrate this amazingly unique native bird! If you’re lucky enough to be teaching or learning in a whanau group/syndicate team/pod or hub which bears its name, then you’re in for a treat.

- A mini ‘one-cut-book’ which contains little Pūtangitangi related fun facts and research tasks
- A ‘keywords & colouring’ sheet containing a list of keywords to research, small colouring sheet, and 6 mini research challenges **This page cleverly folds to reveal the Pūtangitangi’s full name when the sheet is complete.
