There's been plenty of kills and thrills for the young ones at the third annual Wild Game Hunt and Fishing Competition in the rural Waikato area of Tauhei.
The contest, which started yesterday, is a Tauhei Combined School fundraiser.
Organiser Angela Martin says it's a great way for kids to
have fun and help their school in the process.
Money from previous years bought IT equipment for the school, but this year's is going towards a shaded outdoor area.
Lindsay Lammas, 6, says the best part is hunting with his family. "We've been night-eeling and caught one eel. This morning we went goat shooting, and my Dad got four or five," Lindsay said. "It's lots of fun, but we want to get more turkeys."
