Natureland Progress

×

Jaycee members and members of other organisations who have put in hundreds of man-hours on the Nature-land project at Tahunanui, are now beginning to see something for their labours. Much of the back-breaking preliminary work was hidden to the eye, but buildings are starting to take shape now. The big main wall of the monkey house looks impressive as does the concrete flooring, and work is progressing well on the main aviary (above).
