Positive change begins with everyday actions, and demonstrating to children what we value and care about.
Practical sustainability is about empowering children and investing in their futures: from recycling, worm farms, green cleaning to conserving water. Great ideas for planning and activities that you can implement in your centre.
Planning for sustainability is outlined in detail, with the steps necessary to develop your own management plan, setting targets and goals with the input of all groups involved in the service.
Activity ideas include:
- understanding pollution in the waterways
- making paper
- creating a mini landfill
- composting
- setting up a vegetable garden
- making a tyre garden.
