Great day at the Korokoro Stream looking at the fish in the awa, with the help of GWRC and Enviroschool folks. We saw up close inanga, blue gilled and red finned bullies toitoi and titikura and a lovely tuna. We learned about what they eat and what eats them. And we learned about the plans for a rock passage A great learning experience for little kids and big kids. Thanks to the organisers
