Environmental Sustainability

Soldiers' Settlement Public School Preschool is committed to environmentally sustainable practices. We have developed a philosophy which outlines this commitment and the practices that we promote.

We encourage families to donate materials for craft and boxes for collage.

Children are engaged daily in the following sustainability activities;

• Composting
• Worm Farm - produces fertiliser for our vegetable gardens
• Energy and Water saving
• Paper Recycling. This is a whole-school approach
• Re-using packaging such as yoghurt containers
• Separating waste into rubbish, recycle and compost/worm farm
• Reducing packaging in lunch boxes

We also have ongoing connections with Randwick City Council, to further develop our sustainable practices.
