Wildlife Foxton Trust

Wildlife Foxton Trust Education by Example - delivering ecological and environmental education Sessions last at least 90 minutes.

We continue to grow our environmental education centre having relocated down to Foxton Beach, highlighting the immense taoanga at the Papangio Te Wharangi Manawatū Estuary. We provide a citizen science experience on estuarine health with the Marine Metre Square programme from Otago University Marine Centre, as well as mini Bioblitz data collections on the unique fauna and flora of this area. We gr

ow dune and estuarine plants offsite from our current centre for community planting days, as well as to support restoration of the Coastal Dune systems here at the Beach. We do school and activity/seniors group bookings at low cost - needing at least two week's notice to arrange educators for groups over 8.
