I'm also pretty certain that if you've ever spoken to me about it you'll have heard me talk about how cool it would be if we could do something connected with one of my passions.snowboarding. As the effects of climate change start to happen there is a possibility of our snow conditions here in Wanaka. Favourite ski field, Treble Cone. We sta...

EfS in Queenstown Lakes: Waste Audit at MAC
http://efsqueenstownlakes.blogspot.com/2010/09/waste-audit-at-mac.html
Monday, September 13, 2010. Waste Audit at MAC. The Regeneration Otago Quaranteen Island weekend inspired Meg and Violet to start plans to get some kind of level upon their school recycling system. One of the actions that came out of producing these plans was to do a waste audit at school. We needed some data about what exactly Mount Aspiring College were throwing away before we could design a system to direct it to the best stream and then reducing it. The thing that struck me was the amount of plastic ...

EfS in Queenstown Lakes: Edible Gardens with QPS Seniors
http://efsqueenstownlakes.blogspot.com/2010/07/edible-gardens-with-qps-seniors.html
Monday, July 5, 2010. Edible Gardens with QPS Seniors. We'd already had one afternoon session where we checked out the area that it may go, plus the results of their inquiry that they'd already done. The principal and property manager were asked about locations and garden types. The location confirmed and then the frame purchased, a very nice kit set from Placemakers. Next step, compost!

EfS in Queenstown Lakes: Raumati South Kindergarten
http://efsqueenstownlakes.blogspot.com/2010/07/raumati-south-kindergarten-green-gold.html
Monday, July 5, 2010. If anyone tries to tell you that you can't do EfS with kindergarten aged children, tell then to check out Raumati South Kindergarten. Their place is AMAZING! One of the first things you notice are the incredible grounds. There is evidence of reuse everywhere. Which ever way you turn then you'll find some food growing, even at the start of winter. They even have their own aviary, how cool is that? Monday, July 05, 2010. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Tuesday, June 22, 2010. Central Otago Enviroschools Workshop - June 2010. With the success of the Central Otago Hui under my belt I felt it was time to step up and run the yearly Central workshop too. As usual I was nervous as, I wasn't sure if my programme was going to hit the spot, but thanks to some amazing help I think we got there. To try to put things in context I chose the 5% Edible. After some introductions to new faces and contacts, we got stuck into the work. As we all know the Action Learning ...

Tuesday, February 16, 2010. Recycling an entire house. Here at Wastebusters we see the problems that are associated with building and demolition waste. According to some figures I've read, this could take up possibly 50% of landfills.

Links to this post. Friday, February 12, 2010. Global warming and snow storms. This w...

Monday, July 5, 2010. What happens when you get all the Enviroschools together in one place? Aside from lots and lots of work, it tends to go a little crazy. On the first night of our Wellington national hui the Wellington Team put together an amazing skit / play / thing? Who knows what to call it, but it certainly was fun. Roles were swapped and the story was told of one facilitators plans for a student hui casued himself and his new girlfriend a fair amount of stress on evening. Monday, July 05, 2010.

Tuesday, September 22, 2009. Primary put on quite possibly the best school play I have ever seen. With their new school being built and the school embracing the Eco-Hut Challenge, the juniors have embraced this with their production of the three little pigs. Held at the Lake Wanaka. Center, which was packed to capacity, the children gave an amazing performance. I'm sure we are all aware of the story of the three little pigs. Wanaka. Primary gave a great little twist to it all and I was overwhelmed. Links...
