Trees & Seas Film Festival 2025, September 20th - 29th

Film Example: Here the Wild Things Are, a film we recommend for grades 2 and up

Here the Wild Things Are (9 min) - Chronicles a friendly competition between two towns in New Zealand to win a citizen science initiative. Hundreds of people of all ages take photos and collect audio samples of the species in their environments. Everyone learns a lot and has fun!

These activities are part of a wider global effort which takes place in April and May each year. Your class may want to participate too after watching how much fun it is!
