Enviroschools is a whole school approach to environmental education. With support from the school community,
students plan, design and take action to create a sustainable school environment.
Changing attitudes and ways of living requires people to be involved in a range of projects and processes over
time and a facilitation process, funded by Environment Southland encourages this, including a facilitator who
has the ability to guide, motivate and support this process.

Measuring Change
Throughout New Zealand hundreds of schools are engaging in learning for sustainability – a holistic process
that has a range of environmental, educational, economic and social benefits for students and their community.
Every year we see and hear of enviroschools diverting tonnes of waste from landfill, planting thousands of
native trees and taking action to use energy and water efficiently. So how much change are enviroschools
actually making? What difference does this make towards creating sustainable school communities and
collectively, a more sustainable New Zealand? The
Measuring Change Tool
measures the physical environmental outcomes happening in schools.
The Measuring Change Tool
was developed by The Enviroschools Foundation
with support from the Ministry of Education and is available for ALL SCHOOLS to use, not just Enviroschools, and can be used by Early
Childhood Centres through to Tertiary Institutes.
The Measuring Change Tool
currently has four sections. You can chose to do all of the sections or one at a time. The sections are;
