Life Education Trust Wellington City has been successfully delivering the Life Education programme to children throughout this local area since 1990. This has given us a proud history in the community and helped our programmes to become respected in the education sector.
Being a health resource, Life Education takes children on a journey through five subject strands; identity and resilience, food and nutrition, human biology, relationships and substances. Exploring these strands helps them to understand the wonder of their own bodies, and how best to take care of them. Since Covid, we have also been working with a particular emphasis on building students resilience.
In order to keep the costs to schools as low as possible the Trust relies on donations and grants received to continue to deliver our service to the children of Wellington City through our highly skilled educator, and modern learning environment – the mobile classroom.
If you require more information on how we can work with you and your school, or would like to find out how you can support our trust please get in touch!
