Te Kawa O Tangaroa is an ocean-centred learning programme from the Marine Stewardship Council focussed on solutions to overfishing and how we can ensure oceans teeming with life.
The resources are aligned to the New Zealand National Curriculum and Te Marautanga o Aotearoa (Maori Curriculum) and designed for learners in Years 7-10 of the New Zealand education system.
Our oceans are under immense pressure from pollution, climate change and overfishing. As we pass the baton to the next generation, education is key to generating greater understanding, urgency and action to protect our big blue planet.
With your help, we can promote ocean literacy in New Zealand.
If you'd like to get in touch to find out more about our education initiative, please email perya.short@msc.org.
Each quarter, we'll feature the latest education resources, upcoming calendar dates, competitions and the very best ocean-related stories.
The National Aquarium of New Zealand offers a unique out of classroom visit with curriculum-linked practical learning activities for schools, in addition to virtual classrooms, digital and online learning resources.
With the Antarctic Academy at the International Antarctic Centre students see a purpose driven ocean centred literacy curriculum through online and hands-on learning. They fall in love with our Penguin Rescue centre which highlights the importance of the fragile marine ecosystem of New Zealand and the Southern Ocean. Our students leave wanting to take action to help save marine animals now and in the future. Contact: education@iceberg.co.nz
House of Science develop relevant, bi-lingual resource kits for use in primary and intermediate schools. The kits come complete with teacher manuals, student work sheets, and all the material needed to carry out engaging science lessons. By working with the children of today we are helping to build a scientifically literate community of tomorrow.
