Resource Box for Schools Program

What is the Resource Box for Schools program?

The Resource Box for Schools program offers four exquisite hardcover books boxed and delivered FREE to the first 4000 schools that register annually.

The books are accompanied by curriculum aligned lesson sequences designed to assist teachers to ignite environmental custodianship in primary aged students while meeting key learning outcomes.

Now in its third year, we have a developed a suite of books illuminating topics about our natural world and cultural diversity.

To learn more about the books in each series, to view the digital books, or download the Teacher Resources, scroll down to explore the content below.

Educators will receive lesson plans, video resources, school fundraising opportunities and group support. Also included is information on how to get involved in our global Roots & Shoots youth-led movement and fundraising with our tree-planting friends at WOODiWILD.
