Enviro School

We are proud to have been accepted for the three year process of environmental learning and action; as an environschool we gain access to an extensive resource kit and a school co-ordinator - Mr Mike Holmquist.

This is a very exciting project that involves the whole school community - students, teachers, caretaker, Board of Trustees, families/whanau and our wider community.  Everyone each has a role in actively creating and caring for our school.

The aim is for our students to be inspired and creative - becoming more competent in making decisions about creating a sustainable school environment.

Last year Room 3 achieved 94% waste free in their lunch boxes   Room 10 was 2nd with 87% and Room 7 with 81%.  This year lets see if all classes can achieve or better these results!

Fantastic!

The Enviro Team were extremely lucky to have a visit from Mr Steve Ericksson, he is an expert in soil elements.

Mr Ericksson and the team discuss the gardens and check the soil.
