Environmental

As a school we want to make a positive difference to our environment. We focus on sustainable communities by empowering our children with learning opportunities that enable them to take action for the environment. Respecting the diversity of people’s cultures is reflected in our planning, learning and action and this framework is underpinned with our Maori perspective. Our school colours are red and green and depict the colours of our Pohutukawa trees growing on our boundary.

At Newmarket School we are very proud of achieving Green Gold as an EnviroSchool. We still have heaps to learn about behaving

responsibly towards the environment, but our journey is underway!
