Enviroschools

Enviroschools is an education awards scheme that encourages schools towards becoming sustainable communities, incorporating best environmental practices that will carry over into pupils home/ everyday life.

Enviroschools offers schools:

  • an opportunity to make environmental education a central part of school life
  • enriched and integrated educational experiences
  • an opportunity to develop young people's decision making skills
  • potential for financial savings
  • a chance to share ideas with other schools
  • access to a network of support agencies
  • a national award
  • an opportunity to become part of a global movement.

Rewarding children

Every year the participating schools take part in an awards celebration where they can show other schools in the region what they have been doing, interact with other kids, and receive award certificates!
