Beaconsfield Upper Primary School
Sustainability and the environment are an integral part of our programs at Beaconsfield Upper Primary School. Our school is situated in the environmentally sensitive foothills of Melbourne’s East and has a strong tradition of environmental action, in our school, as well as our community.
Over the past five years, our school has had a major building upgrade, with the many challenges associated with the loss of developed areas in our grounds. This redevelopment, has enabled our students to be involved in the planning and decision making through our Envirokids; students from all levels, and our Junior School Council.
In 2009, we completed the ResourceSmart AuSSI Vic Core Module and in 2010 we also finished the Waste module. We hope to complete all modules by 2012.
