Shortly describe your project

We are involved in the Waterschool project, which naturally helps us prevent waste.

We sort and shop not only on our own, but also with our children, buying milk from a farmer in glass bottles, which again helps us avoid PET bottles and other packaging.

We shop with our children in a packaging-free store and store food in jars, which can be washed and reused several times.

We sort waste and recycle not only at the nursery, but also involve the wider community in the village in recycling.

We talk to the children about nature, and this year, on May 23, we also remembered International Turtle Day, which focuses on the environment, with a discussion with a turtle keeper at our nursery.
