What is Enviroschools?
The Enviroschools Programme empowers young people to take action for a sustainable future through a whole-school approach, supporting tamariki to lead projects, strengthen connections with their communities, and care for the environment.
2026 Murihiku Southland Enviroschools Hui
Join us for the 2026 Murihiku Southland Enviroschools Hui, a day of inspiration, connection, and action for student environmental leaders from across Murihiku Southland.
This year's hui will focus on our Enviroschools theme area ‘Energy’, exploring where energy comes from, how we use it, and the role we can all play in creating a more sustainable future. Through hands-on activities, interactive workshops, and presentations, students will discover how energy is transformed, the importance of renewable energy, and practical actions they can take in their schools and communities.
The hui will also provide an opportunity for Enviroschools students and teachers to connect, share their environmental journeys, and learn from one another. We're delighted to welcome a range of guest speakers who will share their knowledge and experiences to inspire the next generation of environmental leaders. More information about the programme and guest speakers will be released closer to the event.
