At Liberté Pre-School, permaculture principles and practices are integrated into various activities to help children develop an appreciation for nature and an understanding of the importance of environmental sustainability.

Permaculture is a design system that aims to create sustainable and regenerative ecosystems, while promoting social and economic resilience.

One way that permaculture can be incorporated into our classrooms is through gardening. Children learn about plant life cycles, soil health, and composting through hands-on activities such as planting, watering, and harvesting. As a practical activity, permaculture gardening also allows children to develop their fine motor skills and their ability to observe and describe natural phenomena.

Another way permaculture is incorporated into the classroom is through using natural materials. As a Montessori-inspired school, our classrooms are designed to include natural materials such as wood, stone, and plants, which help children connect with nature and develop a sense of respect for the environment.

Overall, permaculture helps children understand the interconnectedness of all living things while providing an opportunity for hands-on learning and exploration. By incorporating permaculture principles and practices into the classroom, children develop a deep appreciation for the natural world and a commitment to environmental sustainability.
