All GREEN Schools projects

The Nature Kids Club accepts empty Egg Cartons and sends them to the Calgary Food Bank. The students learn that they can make an impact on the lives of others. Helping children make a connection to their community.

The Nature Kids Club recycles plastics, metals and glass. We asked the Staffroom to join in our efforts. A staff member volunteers to recycle this at their home blue bin.

The Nature Kids Club will participate in Earth Day activities and will invite our Alderman to join us in supporting our initiative for our Planet.

The Nature Kids Club use reusable containers instead of zip-lock bags and plastic to bring our snacks and lunches in. We are encouraging others to bring a garbage-less and nutritious food as well.

Nature Kids Clubs reminds all classes to keep larger pieces of construction paper and use them for other projects instead of putting them in the recycling bin.

The Nature Kids Club has had things donated to our school that have been recycled. The Nature Kids Club encourage classes to reuse resources when and where we can. For example, teachers use old muffin tins to put paint pucks in instead of buying new plastic trays, use old yogurt for holding manipulatives or margarine containers for water dishes for painting.

The Nature Kids Club has encouraged classes to use their recycled paper for other things. In room 3, they are now using recycled paper for our spelling tests, to draw pictures on etc. instead of getting new paper.

Our Kindergartens are collecting blue bins yogurt containers, juice etc. as part of our Nature Kids Club. They are learning how to recycle in their class.
