Celebrating success in sustainability
The Eco-Schools Green Flag is an internationally recognised award, presented to schools and nurseries that embed environmental awareness into daily life. The programme follows a seven-step framework designed to empower children and staff to take positive action for the planet through engaging, hands-on experiences.
Building a lifelong love of nature
These achievements have been supported by our bespoke Sow & Grow programme, which brings sustainability to life for children aged 2 to 5 years old. The programme encourages children to grow and nurture fruits, vegetables and flowers, helping them understand where food comes from and the importance of caring for the environment.
Gardening and eco-focused activities not only encourage curiosity and a sense of responsibility but also support wider Early Years development. From improving physical skills and supporting early maths and science concepts, to building confidence, independence and healthy eating habits, Sow & Grow helps children develop essential skills while cultivating a lifelong love of the natural world.
