Eco School Programme
At IST we encourage the whole community to be part of protecting and regenerating the environment and designing the sustainable world that we need. For this reason, we offer a comprehensive programme in environmental education, starting from its early years programme.
The programme entails the theoretical teaching and learning of the core principles of permaculture along with year-round experiential learning activities in nature. Students throughout the school establish habits for wildlife to increase biodiversity, grow food in the organic gardens for the school’s cafeteria and innovate and monitor energy saving alternatives. The programme develops students who are passionate about protecting and regenerating the environment and educating the community in environmental awareness.
