Forest and Bird members on Great Barrier Island have been influential in establishing a land and beach-care group, called Custodians of the Environment, based on Mulberry Grove School. Early initiatives include beach clean ups, and planting native flora on streamsides and along the coastal esplanade reserve. School staff and children have also helped the Department of Conservation to rescue a small whale which stranded only 30 metres from the school.
