THE BUSH NEWS
Twelve years experience in entertaining diverse audiences, ranging from kindergartens and school groups to the corporate functions and night entertainment held at Woodlyn Park in Waitomo, have given Barry Woods a.k.a Billy a taste for spreading our pioneer story.

Aware that New Zealand's pioneer history is fast disappearing, Billy Black is passionate about keeping it alive for future generations. With this in mind he has designed a travelling road show especially for schools. The Kiwi Culture Road Show is a totally professional, and highly interactive hour-long walk through the history of New Zealand's development from bush to farmland.

The Story of our forefathers felling and taming rugged bush into the lush pastureland that is New Zealand today, is interwoven and enhanced by vivid power point images, hands on interaction with technologies employed by the Bushmen, and Billy's natural humour. This is an all absorbing, fun and interactive show, which imparts knowledge and understanding of our pioneer history whilst motivating problem solving and thinking outside the square. Students discover the amazing strength of the Timber jack, experience the tension of log splitting, feel the grind of a wringer washing machine and other technologies used by New Zealand's early settlers.

The show concludes with a section on introduced animal species and here "Jonah" the rugby playing, Harley riding hog, a.k.a a kune kune pig, provides a fine finale to an awesome show.

Teachers and parents visiting the show at Woodlyn Park comment on the wealth of knowledge they've gained from the show.
