School Grounds
There are a number of ways in which we appreciate and promote the value of biodiversity and nature on the school property. The following areas are highlighted in this theme:
-
Infrastructure planning and maintenance: We identify and meet school needs, look after the boundary and security needs, maintain resources and teaching and learning tools and equipment.
-
Waste: We find ways to minimise waste, be smart about recyclables and turn organic waste into compost.
-
Gardens and food gardens: We plant more indigenous trees, plan for shade and shelter, plant vegetables, and use the food garden as a teaching resource.
-
Outdoor Classrooms: We identify opportunities to take teaching outdoors for different subjects and lessons.
