Toimata – Enviroschools is a facilitated programme which helps young people design, plan and implement sustainability actions that are important to them and their communities. The Enviroschools kaupapa is creating a healthy, peaceful and sustainable world where inter-generations of people work with and learn from nature. The programme provides pathways from early childhood through primary, intermediate, secondary school and beyond. This video of Sylvia Park School is an example of how students and teachers are embedding sustainable practices in everyday activities.
Experience Centres provide popular curriculum-based learning programmes and are based mainly in Auckland’s Regional Parks. Led by specialist educators and park rangers, the programmes offer hands-on experiences for students, opportunities for young people to connect with nature, and provide teachers with a comprehensive range of resources.
The Travelwise programme makes school travel safer, healthier and more fun. This whole-school programme works with primary, intermediate and secondary schools to encourage the use of active travel modes and public transport. TravelWise schools design individualised Safe School Travel Plans to create safer and less congested roads outside their grounds.
A popular action is the Walking School Bus. Auckland has more than 350 walking schools buses, with over 4,000 children walking to school. Find out how you can start a walking school bus at your school.
