Trees
for the Environment
This unit of work for schools is available for teachers, as part of the Taranaki Regional Council’s environmental education programme.
The
unit highlights the value of trees in our environment. The information

largely
concentrate on how trees are used by the Taranaki Regional Council
to enhance the environment. Links to the NZ Curriculum documents are
provided to assist teachers to track student progress.
