Petra Crofton is a biologist and philosopher who has worked with A Rocha in Portugal, France and other countries. Recently she teamed up with A Rocha Netherlands to offer Christian primary schools an extensive free education resource about wildlife, climate, sustainability and creation care.
Science Geek Christy and her Eco-Logbook follows the story of 12-year-old Christy, her three best friends and teacher Mr Nolan, as they embark on an exciting eco-adventure to Ecuador. Along the way they face many challenges and dilemmas, like how to travel there in an environmentally friendly way.
The education pack ties in with the Dutch teaching curriculum for science, RE and other subjects and links to the work of A Rocha and Climate Stewards. The English version of the book will be published by Lion Hudson UK on 17 September and Petra is also hoping to adapt, translate and publish the education pack for English-speaking schools, education programmes and individuals.
