Green/Gold Taskforce


It’s an exciting time for Muritai. We are in the process of gaining Green / Gold as an Enviroschool. A taskforce has been set up to establish where we are at and what we need to do to become a Green / Gold School.

Where we are at:
We have a living, evolving school where progress is celebrated and new ideas are being added all the time. The Guiding Principles are woven into all aspects of our school life. Environmental sustainability is part of all our decisions and everything we do. Students at our school have a strong sense of connection to the environment - we know we can effect change for a sustainable world. The enquiry and action is mainly led by students. We have been able to measure many changes from our actions, and show that we are making a difference. The environment is more vibrant and healthy; it feels like a living ecosystem that can support our community towards sustainability. Māori perspectives are enriching our journey. The school is involved with our community, honouring the diversity of people within it.
