eco-responsibility

To ensure the sustainability of our planet and the survival of future generations, a balance must be maintained between people, money and nature. Sustainability is an integral part of pop e poppa’s mission and is integrated into the pedagogical concept of each daycare centre. Our commitment to sustainability includes a policy, an internal assessment and the eco-friendly label.

Our commitment to sustainability is divided into four pillars:

An  educational approach that makes children sensitive to respect for nature.
The main aim is to make children aware of the nature around them and to take care of it. To achieve this, activities such as visits to the farm, days in the forest, recycling waste and discovering the nature cycle are organised.

Teams who are oriented in their everyday actions towards behaving as an eco-citizen.
Sustainability also involves the educational team. Each member of the team learns about the policy as soon as he or she arrives and applies the daily gestures of anti-waste, waste sorting and the use of environmentally friendly materials. The children have examples to follow!

Selecting local suppliers who are respectful of the environment.
In order to offer the best to our children, we opt for local and sustainable suppliers. From food to furniture to household products, we want the children to live in an environment that is as healthy and sustainable as possible.

Infrastructure that promotes sustainable development
The infrastructure is ideally located close to public transport, so that parents and employees can get to the nursery without a car.

eco-friendly label

In order to obtain the eco-friendly label, our daycare centres must meet certain conditions in line with our policy. Each year, the daycare centres are evaluated to see if they meet the conditions.

80% of the evaluation points must be achieved to obtain the label. The decision whether or not to award the label to a daycare centre is taken by the labelling committee.
