The Enviroschools kaupapa is about creating a healthy, peaceful, sustainable world through learning and taking action together.
Our Kaupapa guides all that we do and is embodied in five guiding principles that underpin the whole Enviroschools journey:
- Empowered Learners participate in genuine ways in their community.
- Learning for Sustainability is a holistic, action and future-focused approach to learning, that engages our whole selves and addresses all aspects of our local and global environment.
- Te Ao Māori holds insights, knowledge and ways of being in relation to the taiao. Honouring this acknowledges the intrinsic relationship of tangata whenua with this land.
- Respect for Diversity is celebrated, and all forms of identity and ability are respected to foster a society that is fair, peaceful and cooperative.
- Sustainable Communities act in ways that nurture all aspects of nature, including people, now and in the future. By working together and supporting each other we create safe, healthy, equitable and thriving communities.
We are proud to be an Enviroschool.
