New climate change educational package to be introduced to schools across New Zealand

January 12, 2020

A new set of educational resources about climate change are being made available to schools nationwide.

Students have been taking climate action onto the streets, but now the Government is bringing it inside the classroom.

A set of educational resources will be available to schools nationwide, explaining the science behind climate change and ways to reduce its impact.

The package also includes a wellbeing guide to reduce feelings of anxiety around the issue and encourage constructive action.

It follows a successful trial at a Christchurch school in 2018.

Coco Lovatt and Maia McRoberts talked to TVNZ1’s Breakfast about what it is they’re fighting for.

School Strike 4 Climate held three strikes last year, with thousands of people taking to the streets to call for change.
