Vlastina has received 2nd Green Flag Award from Eco-Schools/Ekoškola in recognition of our Eco-Schools journey. To earn the Green Flag Award they have been following the seven elements of the programme for another two years.

Eco-Schools is the largest sustainable schools programme in the world, operated internationally by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE). Eco-Schools supports schools in our work with Learning for Sustainability and helps ensure our children and young people are equipped with skills that they need for the future.

The Eco-Warriors have worked extremely hard to raise awareness and implement eco-initiatives across the school. We have focused our work on litter, waste minimisation and food waste of the ten topics of Eco-Schools. The Eco-Warriors have also linked our action plan to UN Sustainable Development Goal 12 – ‘Responsible production& consumption’ which linked to the three topics above. We registered as an Eco-School with Tereza, Educational centre in 2016 and this is our first award.

Three ECO inspectors visited the school to evaluate our progress towards achieving the green flag for Eco-Schools. Two members of the Eco-Council (Sophia and Nela) gave the visitors an informative tour around the school and highlighted all the areas where we are focussing on eco initiatives.

Well done to the Eco Council and the whole school community for your continued hard work and support.
