Again the Rata Foundation has been very generous with it's donation of $50,000 to Nelson Tasman Kindergartens.
This will be used for much needed maintenance and improvements at our Kindergartens including installation of change tables, new shade sails, replacing bark in our playgrounds, new fences and helping with the costs of building a playground at our new Kindergarten in Murchison.
We are extremely grateful for their generous contribution.

Enviroschools
Nelson Tasman Kindergartens are an enviroschools regional partner. The Enviroschools Programme is a unique sustainability journey that over 950 early childhood education centres and schools in New Zealand are on.
The following 16 Kindergartens and Centres are Enviroschools.

Through exploration and discovery, tamariki and students develop learning and language, care and creativity, relationships and responsibilities suited to their developmental stage. What emerges is a connection with nature and a sense of belonging to the environment and community.

Through these connections with the environment tamariki and students can consider the world we are a part of, and look to how we make decisions to improve the physical and social environment of our places, our community and our world.
