Environmental action at Renwick Kindergarten
|
More than 400 early childhood education (ECE) services are part of the Enviroschools environmental action programme, and Renwick Kindergarten is a sterling example of what can be achieved when educators, tamariki, whanau and the wider community band together to go green.
Renwick Kindergarten has achieved Green-Gold status in the Enviroschools programme and has done lots of things to show its care and commitment to our planet.
Their work isn't finished yet, though! Enviroschools has recently added a new Excellence award level, which Renwick Kindergarten has its sights set on.
To see how they're thinking globally, acting locally, and educating young eco-warriors, let's hear from two of Renwick's teachers, Kate McVie and Alice Lammas.
