Sustainable practices are incorporated into this nursery’s daily routines through a nature-based curriculum, so that children are equipped with the knowledge, skills and values necessary to become responsible and sustainable citizens for the future.
Children learn about the importance of reducing, reusing and recycling and they engage in hands-on activities including composting organic waste and tending to the nursery garden, which emphasises the concept of natural cycles and the value of preserving resources. During on-site Forest School sessions, they explore and observe the natural environment and learn about the importance of conserving biodiversity, protecting habitats and valuing the natural world. They develop a strong connection with nature through tree-planting and wildlife conservation projects.
