Association of Principals of Catholic Schools<br />
Principals from Catholic schools across Trinidad visited the Trust for their semiannual<br />
Principals’ retreat. The Principals enjoyed the Environmental Education<br />
Programmes of the Trust and saw first hand how beneficial they are for their<br />
students.<br />
Environmental education<br />
plays an important part in<br />
Natural<br />
Resource<br />
Management. As pressures<br />
now being put on our society<br />
call for a new awareness,<br />
embracing plants, animals,<br />
and people.<br />
Environmental education is important in EVERY field of learning and endeavour<br />
and can be brought in and taught in any subject area of education.<br />
Environmental education and Public Awareness today is a matter of Survival and<br />
needs to be taken outdoors as well as being taught in schools.<br />
Outdoor learning is the extension of the learning experience beyond the four walls<br />
of the classroom, it is exciting and brings the WRITTEN WORD TO LIFE.<br />
Part of the aim of The Trust’s Environmental Programmes is to develop proper<br />
resource-use conscious citizens. We need to create a more caring and<br />
environmentally conscious people, whether doctors, lawyers, politicians or<br />
industrialists.
