Education for Environmental Sustainability

Glenbrook School is actively involved in caring for our environment. We are proud to be a Silver Enviro School. We maintain school gardens, and students are encouraged to take responsibility for their rubbish and for caring for the wider school environment. 

Trees for Survival, children growing our future is a hands-on programme designed to help students learn about trees and their importance for our future. Its goal “more children planting more trees” supports efforts to control soil erosion, safeguard water quality, regulate stream flow, increase biodiversity, reduce greenhouse gases, and restore and beautify our landscapes.

A key feature of the programme is community partnership, bringing together organisations and individuals committed to protecting our environment. Within our school community, students, teachers, parents, and grandparents work alongside sponsors, the local council, and landowners to make a meaningful difference to our ‘at risk’ environments. Glenbrook School collaborates with several organisations through the TFS programme. If you are able to assist in any way, please email the school office.
