WAIPA EARTH CHAMPIONS
PRC helped out at Waipa Earth Champions, learning from the kids about the fantastic initiatives that they are practicing at their own schools. Enviro students from 8 schools around the Waipa came together to share their knowledge and learn a few new things along the way. In our rotation, Quinton and Shannon talked about the importance of eco sourced seed collecting and it was fantastic to see what these kids already knew! They particularly liked the challenge of exploring to find the seeds and even recognized some of these native trees from their own backyard!
Waipa Earth Champions is run by Enviroschools, who help connect schools to local environmental organisations. Its great to see so many kids exploring new ways to create a sustainable future.
