World Environment Day 2026 ♻️🌏
Last Friday, the children explored ways we can care for and protect our environment through hands-on, meaningful play experiences. From investigating ocean pollution in our sensory trays to reusing loose parts and recycled materials in creative play, children were encouraged to think about how their actions can help our planet.
Through these experiences, children developed an understanding of sustainability, environmental responsibility, and the importance of caring for living things and natural environments. They explored problem-solving, collaboration, creativity, and communication while engaging in rich sensory and imaginative play.
EYLF Connections:
Outcome 2: Children become connected with and contribute to their world by developing respect for the environment and understanding their role in caring for it.
Outcome 4: Children are confident and involved learners as they investigate, experiment, and use recycled materials in creative ways.
Outcome 5: Children interact verbally and non-verbally to share ideas, discuss environmental issues, and work together during play.
By nurturing environmentally responsible practices from an early age, we are helping children become caring and understand the importance of protecting our world for future generations.
