Canterbury
Paper4trees was first introduced to the Canterbury Region in 2010.
Since then, a total of 347 schools and preschools have joined Paper4trees!
That is the equivalent to 79% of all Canterbury schools.
Between 2010 and 2024, Canterbury schools and preschools have:
-
Diverted 9,529 tonnes of paper and cardboard from landfill
- That's around the same as 2,036 elephants! -
Saved 76,278 cubic metres of landfill space
-
Prevented 51,421 tonnes of carbon dioxide from being created in landfill
Isn't this an amazing effort? We think so, which is why we have rewarded Canterbury schools and preschools with a total of...
35,072 native trees! to plant in their school grounds or within their local community.
