Nurturing Educational Environments: Our Approach to Landscape Care

At Green by Nature, we recognise that the physical environment plays a crucial role in shaping the educational experience. Well-maintained, attractive open spaces not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of educational facilities but also contribute to a positive learning atmosphere. Our specialised landscape care and maintenance services are tailored to meet the unique needs of educational institutions, from childcare centres to prestigious universities.

Expertise in Educational Landscapes

Our extensive experience in managing landscapes for a diverse range of educational facilities has given us unparalleled insights into the specific requirements of these environments. We understand that each institution is unique, and we pride ourselves on our ability to:

– Design customized maintenance programs that align seamlessly with academic calendars and institutional operations

– Enhance the visual appeal of campuses to attract and retain students, staff, and visitors

– Create outdoor spaces that inspire learning, relaxation, and community engagement

Minimising Disruption, Maximising Impact

We recognize that the primary focus of any educational institution is learning. Our approach is built around this understanding:

What you said
Our sports fields and gardens are thriving at the hands of experienced and professional services. We have been experiencing vastly improved performance in these areas since handing these spaces over to Recreational Services. The Recreational Services team independently execute the maintenance schedule. We have a designated site manager who collaborates and communicates effectively to ensure our goals are achieved.

As Liveable Spaces Manager for Council I have worked with Recreational Services Ltd for the last four years. I have found the staff at RS to be helpful, responsive, and often will go the extra mile to help achieve an important outcome for the community. We have areas for improvement, but we look to how we can achieve these together, most effectively. The people at Recreational Services, at every level of the company, are a pleasure to work with.

The mahi that Green By Nature does makes people feel good, and as a contractor they have delivered strongly for us. We consistently receive positive comments from people about the beautification work in our town and greenspaces, keeping our sportsgrounds in great condition, and ensuring our public conveniences are clean and safe to use. These are tangible things that the public see, and their track record of delivering for us and the community gave us confidence that signing this renewal was the right thing to do
Council’s General manager – Community
Our strong working relationship with the Whangarei Recreational Services team is highly cherished. Their unmatched dedication and passion for maintaining our field of play, grounds, and venue strengthen our partnership, enabling us to successfully secure, host, and deliver significant events.
