Our Vision
Enabling Children to reach their full potential. To educate and inspire generations to embrace positive choices for a healthy mind and body
Life Education teaches children about the wonder of life, themselves and other people by taking them on an adventure in a mobile classroom that is equipped with sight and sound technology designed to capture children's imaginations. Our educators, chosen for their x-factor, take children on this journey together with Harold, our mascot, which makes the trip fun as well as educational.
The North Shore trust is run by a group of dedicated, unpaid volunteers: our educators are paid professionals, but all other activities to deliver this unique program are undertaken by volunteers. The Trust is supported financially by local businesses and community organisations. A special mention should go to the local trucking companies for making sure our mobile classrooms are transported from school to school on the North Shore.

Who is Harold?Harold the Giraffe is the mascot of Life Education. He works in the mobile classroom with the educator, to demonstrate what happens when things go according to plan and what happens when they don't.
Harold is a friendly character and children's responses show that Harold has a huge impact in re-enforcing the messages we teach:
