The Enviroschools Foundation

At the heart of our organisation is a huge network of dedicated and passionate people of all ages, working in hundreds of early childhood centres, schools, kura and organisations across the country.   We offer this website as one way to connect with each other, to share ideas and work together for the kaupapa of creating healthy and viable communities and ecosystems.

Imagine a world...

…communities thriving by revitalising the ecosystems they are part of - producing healthy water, clean energy, rich biodiversity, nurturing buildings and healthy food.

… schools and community are one, with young people gaining skills, knowledge and experiences to design and create their schools, neighbourhoods and country.
