Mentorship: Earth Buddies Programme

So proud to have mentored Stella Moreton as she piloted Earth Buddies supported by the Inspiring Stories NZ Impact Prize!

Over 10 weeks, 25 student leaders guided 150 Year 3 & 4 tamariki through hands-on environmental lessons, from ecological bullrush to invertebrate investigations.

Her mahi was recognised with the Youth Environmental Leader Award at the 2025 Northland Environmental Awards, plus $1000 funding to keep the project growing.

Ka mau te wehi, Stella!
