Canterbury

Paper4trees was first introduced to the Canterbury Region in 2010.

Since then, a total of 
339 schools and preschools have joined Paper4trees!
That is the equivalent to
 74% of all Canterbury schools and 23% of all Canterbury preschools. 
 

Between 2010 and 2025, Canterbury schools and preschools have:

  • Diverted 13,090 tonnes of paper and cardboard from landfill
                 - That's around the same as 2,815 elephants!

  • Saved 80,065 cubic metres of landfill space

  • Prevented 53,977 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...

36,507 native trees! to plant in their school grounds or within their local community.
