The platform for learning will be the “TAKE ACTION FOR WATER” programme, which is an exciting unit supported by Greater Wellington Regional Council. Take Action for Water is an environmental education programme developed in order to give students the opportunity to learn about the value of water, preserve our most important resource and take action to keep the environment healthy and clean. The unit develops children’s environmental awareness and teaches the skills needed to act responsibly for the world.
