Imagine a country where all New Zealanders care about and actively work to restore, enhance and protect our environment. That’s our vision!
Keep New Zealand Beautiful Clean-Up Week took place from 12th to 18th September 2016.
Last year alone, nearly 80,000 volunteers helped to Keep New Zealand Beautiful. Keep New Zealand Beautiful Week is not just about the clean-ups. These events build and strengthen community spirit and allow people to demonstrate their pride in where they live.
Keep New Zealand Beautiful Clean-Up Week’s central aim is to increase community participation of all kinds, but also addresses issues of sustainability, environment, health, crime and social inclusion.
This year we decided to spend some time cleaning up our community. The juniors spend time in and around our school cleaning up the road frontage and underpass while the seniors ventured to our local gully, Maungakotukutuku, where were gathers a mass of rubbish.
We couldn't have done this without the help from KiwiCan who have been teaching us about responsibility and integrity this term.
