Sustainability
Helping the environment
At The Grove Daycare Nursery, we are very passionate about helping preserve and protect the planet we inhabit. Therefore, we continuously work towards implementing as many relevant Global Goals as possible to help create positive actions that will make a difference.
We also strive to implement these ideologies within our inclusive curriculum, offering children the opportunity to learn about these topics through play and exploration as well as linking to our wide range of high-quality texts that cover these topics.
What have we implemented so far?
Locally sourcing fruit, vegetables, and grains for our meals
We also strive to use less meat in our menus
Recycling systems in place throughout the nursery
Turning off all unused electrical sources
Eco-friendly cleaning, washing and laundry products
Encouraging staff and parents to walk, cycle and use public transport to travel to the nursery
Majority of our toys and resources are made using wood, bamboo and metal materials
Using less paper where possible with children, parents and staff
Encouraging wise usage or water throughout the nursery
Global Goals –
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity.
We at The Grove Daycare Nursery will do our utmost to incorporate aspects of these global goals in our nursery curriculum and daily nursery life.
