Our PDF guide to our eco-friendly French school

Our Sustainable Journey

At SOFI 64, we make ecological management a priority in our daily practices. This choice illustrates our commitment to sustainable living and the preservation of our planet.

We are delighted to announce that we have recently been awarded the prestigious Green Standard Schools label. This recognition underlines our commitment to environmental sustainability and to creating a healthy, planet-friendly learning environment for our students.

The Green Standard Schools label is awarded to schools that adopt sustainable and environmentally friendly practices. As a school, we are committed to following their recommendations and encourage environmentally friendly behaviour among our staff and students.

To find out more about our ecological management practices, we invite you to consult our PDF document detailing our sustainable initiatives. By adopting these measures, we actively participate in reducing our ecological footprint while providing a healthy and responsible environment for our students and our community.

Our fantastic neighborhood

We are incredibly well located, close to the beach yet in a quiet and peaceful environment.

When we are not teaching French or surfing (…) we enjoy spending time around. Students and teachers, we all have our favorite places to go to. That is why we asked this amazing artist to make this beautiful illustrated map of our neighborhood.

This map is to help our students better understand our district in a fun way featuring things to do and places to eat in our immediate surroundings.

Our stunning neighborhood and beaches will put you in the best mood to learn French!

Our school is an ecologically committed school

At SOFI 64, we teach French and we love it! We also love Nature!

That’s why we do our best to be ecologically committed… We believe that small things can make a difference!

We take in consideration multiple factors and concentrate our efforts on food, waste sorting, cleaning…

FOOD —-> We offer organic snacks on Fridays! Local and seasonal fruits or cakes we proudly bake or baguette and organic jam …

In our kitchen, you won’t find no plastic cups or plates!

RECYCLING —-> At school, there is a bin for almost every kind of garbage! Paper, toners, glass, cardboard and even organic waste such as coffee, raw vegetables and fruits…

CLEANING —-> Products we use to clean our premises are natural and organic.

BIODIVERSITY —-> We tried to add as many plants and grass wherever we could to help bees and other insects feed and gather pollen: lavender, thym, rosemary, heather, sage, raspberry bushes, chives… and more to come! 🙂 Link to some of these plants here.

VEGETABLES GARDEN —-> Our small vegetables garden is organic.

For both our gardens, we do not use any pesticide at all. Nature does it best!

If you have any eco-friendly suggestions, we will be glad to hear them out! Merci 🙂
