School Environmental Education Day
We recently spent a day with Kaikorai Primary School pupils using KEEWAI as a focus point for environmental education around waterways. Second year running the girls were braver than the boys when it came to “who wants to hold a KEEWAI!” Always nice to spend time talking to the next generation about the the importance of water quality and conservation.

KEEWAI featured in the July 2017 Life and Leisure Magazine. A wonderful KEEWAI story by the talented Anna Tait-Jamieson.
