Thankfully theirs is a school without uniforms, we walk to school and back most days, we re-use their lunchboxes, bags and water bottles year on year, etc. In Ireland, Green Schools are the equivalent of Eco-Schools, and their school buys and covers their textbooks and most stationary too - it's so great not to have to worry about that!<br />#GoingGreenAnnette, Four Acorns / Quatre graines de chĂȘnehttps://www.fouracorns.ienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-85489102619477160332019-09-10T20:00:02.549+02:002019-09-10T20:00:02.549+02:00Great idea, the shopping lists are absolutely craz...Great idea, the shopping lists are absolutely crazy and a serious financial burden for many families so finding a way around this while being eco friendly is something that should really be promoted by schools/ teachers also... #goinggreenSustainable Responsible Livinghttp://www.sustainableresponsibleliving.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-56240830664788249802019-09-04T16:32:47.449+02:002019-09-04T16:32:47.449+02:00Although my children aren't in school anymore,...Although my children aren't in school anymore, I used to buy second hand uniform for them and swop pieces with other parents. i ran a gardening club when I was teaching here in Dubai to encourage and show the local children how some of their food is grown. As you may know I support education in South Africa and collect old school supplies from Private Schools to take into the townships #goinggreenChickenrubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02568740617728527002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-6256835726035718072019-09-03T10:38:51.072+02:002019-09-03T10:38:51.072+02:00Love the jeans to pencil case idea.

My daughters school bag is now going into it's fifth year and she's more than happy with that, fingers crossed it'll last next year as well, as it's her last year.<br /><br />I had no idea that schools could link to third world schools to help out. That's a fantastic idea and hopefully one that makes our children realise just how privileged they are!<br /><br />xxDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933494199087059715noreply@blogger.com
