We are a great resource for Schools for sustainable education programmes and all nature and conservation topics. Information, support, qualified teachers available. We are building up some free on-line information sheets specifically designed for NZ schools. The first ones are for school gardening and composting and "Sprouts in Schools". information sheets for schools Our team of knowledgeable educators, most of whom are qualified teachers need to be booked a few days beforehand. With experienced and motivating teachers like Robyn and Robert Guyton you will get a real boost in skills and knowledge. If you have a planned absence in your school why not hire Robert to be the relief teacher for the day and he can provide a full days programme for one class or a range of classes! We can have groups of up to 25 children on site in the Centre and with Flecks hall next door we can offer a 'round robin' style of activities for 50 children on the topic of your choice tailored to suit your age range and learning objectives. (only $30 hour) We can provide specialist educational accompaniment for field trips in Western Southland. With the Environment Centre, the new museum, a working flax mill and a wide range of natural ecosystems in and around the township, Riverton is has a lot of 'learning outside the classroom' expereinces to offer schools.
