Join us on a journey through sun, sand, and serious kaupapa in this original documentary about rubbish dumping in Gisborne, made entirely by the students of Matapuna Training Centre! This creative and educational video blends together: 🎵 An original music video with the catchy hook: “I want to go to the beach, so keep the beach clean” 🎭 Short comedy skits highlighting the real impacts of illegal dumping 🌊 And scenes of our students enjoying the beauty of our coastline – while encouraging everyone to leave only footprints behind. From tossing frisbees and soaking up the summer vibes, to tackling a major environmental issue through music and storytelling, this project is all about protecting our beaches and showing pride in our community. 🌱 Why this matters: Rubbish dumping not only pollutes our environment – it threatens our oceans, wildlife, and future generations. This video empowers rangatahi to be part of the solution, reminding all of us to: ✅ Use bins ✅ Take your rubbish with you ✅ Respect Papatūānuku ✅ Keep our coastline clean and free of waste 🎤 Made with aroha and talent by the Matapuna Training Centre students 📍 Filmed on location in Gisborne, Aotearoa 🎶 Original music created and performed by the students
