Overview
The Rietfontein Environmental Education Centre was set up and is run by Joburg City Parks’ environmental education unit and aims to create environmental awareness among local residents and school children.
It has three core focus areas:
Programmes aimed at school groups that deal with a wide range of environmental issues from curriculum-based topics such as animal classification, through waste and water, to biodiversity issues;
Community programmes that directly address environmental issues in a specific ward in which the unit works. An example of this includes illegal dumping and wetland degradation; and
Empowering people to take action within their communities to improve their environment, by growing food gardens and setting up feeding schemes, for example.
To hire this center please call Nicole or Israel on 011 803 9300.
