ELP\u2019s serve as a central component of the students access to the most challenging, contemporary curricular, and extra-curricular programes that fully prepare them for a globally connected and fast-changing world environment. Programes should be based on best international practices and should promote a strong sense of intercultural understanding and global engagement especially ecosystems, eco-agriculture, sustainability and engagement.<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n FARM-to-SCHOOL<\/strong><\/span><\/a> – For more click here<\/p>\n Thousands of schools and education organizations across Asia and the world, are embracing “food education” through – 1. school gardens, 2. educational farms, and 3. school meals. These meals are filled with nutritious, local, and seasonal ingredients and attach a educational element that enhances students awareness of nature, citizenship and where food comes from. They bring locally sourced and nutritious food to school cafeterias, improve child nutrition, provide agriculture, health, and nutrition education opportunities to young people, and support local farmers. It has been estimated every dollar spent in farm-to-school programs generates more than two dollars in local economic activity. This includes engaged parents in learning healthier eating at home, reduce food waste at the school, even and improve student test scores and an increase in children\u2019s fruit and vegetable consumption by more than 40 percent. Farm-to-school programs can help inspire healthier eating habits in children and these habits can lead to higher educational outcomes. When children learn about the connection between their food and the environment, they often become better stewards of the land. Across the globe, farm-to-school programs are helping foster connections between students, teachers, parents, farmers, and policymakers through activities that support health, nutrition, agriculture, and local economies.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Michelle Obama – “Let’s Move” video<\/a><\/p>\n Permies Kids Store<\/a><\/p>\n What is PERMACULTURE\u00a0 TEDx talk<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n School Gardens<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Edible School Yard<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Starting a School Garden<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n How to Start a School Garden<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Benefits of a School Garden<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n School Garden Based Learning<\/a><\/p>\n Joy of Gardening for Children<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n http:\/\/edibleschoolgardens.com.au\/dvd-trailer<\/a><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.kitchengardens.det.nsw.edu.au\/kg\/assets\/pts_gannon_kitchengardens.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Edible.School.Gardens\/info?tab=page_info<\/a><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.kidsgardening.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n Outdoor Permaculture Classrooms<\/a><\/p>\n Teaching Kids Sustainability <\/a><\/p>\n Growing the Outdoor Classroom in Schools<\/a><\/p>\n Garden School Foundation<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n International School Grounds Alliance (ISGA)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Youth in Permaculture<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2.
