Michaelhouse actively adopts an holistic Environmental Education Programme.

The aim of the programme is to educate boys and staff to appreciate and deal with environmental issues and to administer and manage the school in environmentally sensitive ways.

We believe that boys should be educated in ways that will ensure long term conservation of our natural resources and through this understanding, be able to provide leadership in creating a sustainable environment in the future.

Our Environmental Education Programme is integrated into various levels of the school - academic studies, outdoor studies, conservation and rehabilitation of the environment, creative and economically advantageous waste disposal, conservation of power, pollution management etc.

In recognition of excellence in this programme, Michaelhouse was awarded its Green Flag status in 2003.
