When the settlers started building houses in New Zealand the easiest material to use was wood and it is still like that today. This house is made of wood.
Quite often there will be a wooden platform, called a deck, around the house where people can sit in summer.
Look at this house closely because it has panels in the roof for solar heating. This means the house can be heated with the power of the sun and not smoky wood fires. This helps the environment
