2011 International Green Schoolyard Conference: Engaging Our Grounds
September 16-18, 2011
San Francisco, CA
Schools near and far are reimagining their grounds, replacing their extensive paved surfaces with a vibrant mosaic of outdoor learning and play opportunities. Schools in many different countries are leaders in this field, finding innovative ways to weave curricula into their landscapes, diversify their recreational offerings, enhance their local ecology, and reflect their unique location and cultural context.
Visionary leaders of the school ground movement from Europe, North America, and Japan will share their experiences, case studies, and best practices at this conference, hosted by the San Francisco Green Schoolyard Alliance. Participate in this exciting conference to hear about cutting edge schoolyards and school gardens, meet like-minded colleagues from the United States and abroad, share ideas, tour fantastic local school grounds, and get inspired to bring these ideas back to your own community.
