A Sustainable Planet
4th-6th Grade Primary school
What repercussions does contemporary life has on the environment? How can I change my daily life routines in order to make it more eco-friendly? How the SNFCC has implemented the most innovative and cutting-edge methods of design in order to be considered a model center of environmental sustainability? Students are invited to discover the answers to the above questions, in an entertaining way, through experiments and workshops. During the program, students enter a small recycling workshop and are challenged to recycle their own plastics transforming them into useful objects.
Design/Implementation: Dr I. Koletsis, Dr Vera Nomikou, Physicists – Meteorologists, Research associates of the National Observatory of Athens.

For high-school students
In view of the weather station of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC), students explore the human influence on the climate both globally and locally, with experiments as their tool. Students also explore how the use of renewable energy sources has been evolved. This educational program aims to teach students the principles of bioclimatic design and how they find application both in the design and in the day-to-day operation of the SNFCC.
