Nature's living spaces are an ideal place for learning and playing, which offer outstanding conditions for sustainable education work. '100 Green Classrooms' – a project by the Regionale 2004 – wants to create enthusiasm for ecological, caring and social connections. This action wants to stimulate thinking about the theme water, countryside, agriculture in the Münsterland and to actively shape the environment.
In the course of this project, school children as well as teachers of the St.-Anna primary school Dreierwalde in cooperation with the rural youth and the school's association at the starting point 'Lünnemann's Pättken', as a meaningful addition to the nature path, planted 9 lime trees in a square as sponsors and thus, document the project's goals. According to the motto 'Experience nature, recognise nature, understand nature, preserve nature', the 'Green Classroom' is to contribute that children walk through nature with their eyes open and comprehend changes in nature. In the course of school lessons in the open air, microbes and vegetation can be examined more closely.
The project '100 Green Classrooms', wants that
- young people are being sensitised for the concerns of nature and environment
- children experience nature actively with all their senses
- environmental-educational networks are being created in the Münsterland
- the geographical qualities of the Münsterland can be experienced
- the problem awareness of regional and supra-regional questions about nature protection will be increased
- young people grow up close to nature
- young people do not spend their whole time watching TV but become curious about the world on the doorstep
- that educational facilities support with tips and suggestions
