This document summarizes the results of a survey given to 144 primary school pupils between the ages of 6 and 12 at Sant Bernat Calbó School in Reus, Spain. The survey was conducted in the fall of 2010 and winter of 2012 and looked at the students' attitudes toward environmental issues, their recycling habits at home and school, and the school's waste management practices. The summary notes that while the students seem to have more knowledge about reducing, reusing and recycling now, their attitudes do not appear to have significantly improved. It also finds that the school recycles more paper, cardboard and packaging now but still has work to do to be more environmentally friendly.
The questionnaire was answered by 556 students from OŠ 8 talcev Logatec school in Slovenia. It assessed students' attitudes toward the environment, recycling habits, and the school's sustainable energy and waste management practices. Most students reported caring about environmental problems and nature. Recycling rates were higher at school than home, though returnable bottles and metal recycling could improve. From 2010 to 2012, the school reduced energy used for heating and copies made per student. Further efforts are needed to save water and electricity.
This document appears to be a survey conducted at the Kaunas Vanda Tumeniene rehabilitation centre school in January 2012 that assessed students' attitudes and behaviors related to environmental issues. The survey found that most students care about the environment and nature, and many take actions like recycling at home and school. While recycling of some materials like paper and organic waste is common, recycling of other materials like batteries, metal, and clothes is less frequent. The survey also examined the school's waste management and efforts to save energy, water, and materials. It found that while the school encourages recycling, it could improve by providing more specific containers for different waste types and better communicating recycling procedures.

The document provides information about the Turkish education system. It discusses the following key points:
1. The Turkish education system is organized by the Ministry of National Education and other laws and consists of formal and non-formal education.
2. Formal education includes pre-school, primary, secondary, and higher education. Non-formal education includes public training, apprenticeship, distance education, and other programs.
3. The education system aims to develop up-to-date curricula, improve teacher training, build technology infrastructure, and increase access to education. Strategic goals also align with the European Union.
Students from grades 5 and 6 conducted eco-audits of their school to analyze its annual water, electricity, and gas usage and costs. They found the school consumed over 92,000 liters of water and 122 million kWh of energy per year, costing nearly €180,000. While the school has solar panels and is a new building, weaknesses included lack of insulation, natural light, and temperature control. Students proposed improvements like installing window covers, using natural light more, and implementing zone heating to regulate temperatures room by room. The goal was to increase environmental awareness and make the school greener.
Egle was the youngest daughter of an old man and his wife. While swimming with her sisters, a serpent crawled into her blouse and promised to come out if she agreed to marry him. Unable to refuse, Egle accepted. After three days, all the serpents in the land came to take Egle as the serpent's bride. Egle lived with the serpent for nine years, during which they had four children. Egle longed to visit her family, but the serpent set impossible tasks for her to complete first. With the help of a wise woman, Egle was able to wear down metal boots, spin silk from a toad, and bake pies without utensils
The document discusses plastic stopper production amounts for different months, paper production amounts, and various service projects done by students. It mentions distributing packages to poor people, arranging the school garden and sports ground, restoring footprints, adjusting classroom furniture, cleaning up a river and rubbish site, and preparing healthy spreads for snacks.
The students and teachers at the school care for the gardens around the school, growing vegetables without pesticides and composting. They have planted flower gardens at the entrance to beautify the yard and painted benches to protect the wood. The school also maintains good neighborly relations with a fence to reduce noise and organizes cleaning actions of the neighborhood.
The school yard beautification project in Kaunas, Lithuania began work in April 2011 by choosing places in the yard to make more beautiful. Before and after photos were taken of flower beds and other areas that were rehabilitated through May and June, with the results making the yard really beautiful.
