Little Greenies @ North West

Little Greenies @ North West was officially launched in 2020 and aims to support pre-school centres in creating a Green Learning corner to educate pre-schoolers on environmental conservation and good eco habits via story-telling and play activities.  

In 2021, North West CDC developed and published a home-based version of ‘Go Green with Betty the Butterfly’ activity book and a parent’s guidebook, ensuring that sustainability education continues at home and is unaffected by school closures due to Covid-19.

Preschools who are on board the programme will receive the following resources and financial support to ensure environmental education starts young to nurture a generation of eco-conscious students:  

1.    Up to $800 funding per financial year

2.     ‘Go Green with Betty the Butterfly’ resource booklets (activity books and educator’s guide)

Preschools can apply for this programme on an annual basis. Applications open annually from 1 April, and approved projects must be completed by end March of the following year.
