Kiwi for Kiwi Morning Tea

The Kiwi lays 10 eggs and 9 get eaten and die and only 1 survives.

We gave all the money to the Kiwi Conversation Club

This morning tea Friday the 16th October room 1 and 2 had a morning tea and all of my food went into  tummys and we raised was $600 and its all going to the Kiwi.

                                                 Facts about the Kiwi

Northland brown kiwi are unique as their own type of the brown kiwi species. They have their own genetic makeup, behaviour and ecology and are slightly larger and heavier than the three other brown kiwi taxa.

Northland brown kiwi grow to about 40cm. Females are on average 20-30% heavier than males, weighing around 2.8 kg. Females have bills ranging from 117 mm to 156 mm long, while male bills range from 86 mm to 119 mm.

Kiwi can’t fly, have under-developed wing and chest muscles and lack a sternum (breastbone). This makes them particularly vulnerable to crushing injuries, such as those caused by dog bites.
