Since 1996, Life Education Trust Coastal Otago has been successfully delivering the Life Education programme to many children throughout the local area.
In 2019 the Trust reached over 5,639 children throughout 47 Coastal Otago schools.
In 2020, post COVID19 lockdown we are delighted that our local schools have confirmed their ongoing commitment to our programme. We are continuing our scheduled delivery.
OUR REGION
Dunedin to Oamaru, through to Omarama, Oamaru, Macraes, Palmerston, Port Chalmers, Sawyers Bay, Otago Peninsula and all schools in between.
Life Education Trust nationally is the largest external health educator for school children in NZ. Our non-profit organization is non government funded and totally reliant on grants, donations and fundraising to continue to deliver this valuable programme via our mobile classroom. A special shout out to Dynes Transport, Dunedin and RBM Driver Training, Oamaru who assist with the logistics etc in moving the mobile educational trailer from site to site throughout the year. We could not do this without you!
