Following its latest funding round, NZ On Air has announced a $13 million investment in kids’ programming for next year, covering ten series and 460 hours of screen time.
One new daily series with the working title Tiki Tour represents a major new commitment for preschoolers. “This is a key audience for NZ On Air which we have not been able to support consistently in recent years,” said chief executive Jane Wrightson. “We’re delighted that TV2 has agreed to screen this charming project made by New Zealanders especially for our country’s preschoolers”, she said.
