Join us on a sustainability adventure with your class!

This programme

• Encourages children to reduce, recycle and reuse items in school, at home and in the community

We want all kiwi kids to thrive at everything they set out to achieve in life. With the guidance of our awesome characters, children will be taken on a sustainability journey, reading stories and completing activities that feature real New Zealanders doing great things to reduce, reuse and recycle. With this knowledge children will be empowered to make changes in their school and home life to help minimise their environmental footprint.

"I thoroughly enjoyed the programme especially as it tied into our inquiry "What is a Problem Solver?" The children had great discussions about how we could reduce, recycle and reuse items in our school and in the community. The highlight for our Principal who taught the unit on plastics was making plastic dice with my students. I would recommend the programme to others in particular the interactive clips and the science experiments. "
