There's a rainbow in my river.
He's the colours of the sky.
As we're walking up the track
he's passing quickly by.
A picnic by the river becomes an exciting experience of river life and colour, with Rainbow Trout cruising the waters in a starring role. Soon Water Spider, Diving Beetle, Koura, Tuna Kuwharuwharu and friends are there too.
Come along for the picnic and learn about the fascinating creatures who live in New Zealand rivers. Includes two information pages about some of the river characters in the story.
He kopere kei taku awa.
No te rangi ona tae.
No maua ka hikoi i te ara,
ki tua ia hipa atu ai.
