Shelley Burnett is the Business Manager at Agrodome in Rotorua, and she personally knows Shaun the Sheep.
Agrodome offers visitors the opportunity to experience a world outside our increasingly online lives. Everyone can immerse themselves in hands-on farm activities, such as feeding sheep, milking cows, cuddling alpacas or lambs, and jumping on a tractor ride. With more than 50 years of experience, Agrodome creates a remarkable connection between people, the land, and animals.
We guarantee that every visitor will leave Agrodome with newfound knowledge about farming, and a sense of belonging to our whānau for the day. Currently, the alpacas are stealing the spotlight, receiving plenty of cuddles. Visitors quickly discover alpacas have no concept of personal space, eagerly grabbing any food you might have.
Shaun the Sheep also joined our flock last year and has been a hit with families. We’ve introduced “Super Shaun”, a 3 metre-tall version, and during school holidays you’ll find Shaun and Bitzer the Dog making guest appearances, as well as episodes of Shaun’s best shows playing on the big screen. The latest installation is Shaun’s free augmented reality app, “Hide & Sheep”, where users can find Shaun hidden in various places around the farm, collect stamps, and snap a selfie with Shaun. There are more big plans with Shaun the Sheep to come...
