School Conservation Awards

The Supporters of Tiritiri Matangi are proud to promote conservation in New Zealand schools.  We have our own School Conservation Award for Primary and Intermediate school students, and are proud to be a sponsor at the NIWA Science and Technology Auckland City Schools Fair.

Junior Conservation Award

Do you know a young conservationist dedicated to helping te taiao thrive? Or a school student who demonstrates kaitiakitanga (guardianship) in their local community or school?

We want to celebrate those primary/intermediate school eco-champions who, inspired by the Tiritiri Matangi Restoration Project, are making a positive contribution towards promoting a message of kaitiakitanga – guardianship of our natural world.

To take part, complete the nomination form (download below) explaining why this person is an eco-champion. Entries are limited to one nomination per school each year. 

The winner of this award will enjoy a free trip to Tiritiri Matangi with their family.
