BC Green Games is a province-wide competition for Kindergarten to Grade 12 students, designed to encourage action, enable sharing and reward and celebrate the green efforts of schools in BC.

The steps to participation include:

1. Register! Sign up your team with your BC Green Games sponsor teacher. Registration begins October 2009.
2. Submit and Share! Starting February 1 and until February 26 2010 help your sponsor teacher submit your entry. View projects in the BC Green Games Gallery and vote for your favourite entries from March 1-15 2010!
3. See the Winners! Chosen by judges and you and announced in April 2010.

Working as a team with other students, you’ll do the following:

  • design a creative solution to an environmental challenge in your school or community
  • document your actions

Your project may include but is not limited to topics like the following:

  • climate change
  • greenhouse gas reduction
  • energy efficiency
  • stewardship and conservation
  • sustainable development
  • water

Projects that fit into BC Green Games submission guidelines and are action-based projects facilitated by an established environmental education program are encouraged.

BC Green Games was developed in collaboration with the B.C. Ministry of Education, the Environmental Educator's Provincial Specialist Association (EEPSA) and the North Vancouver and Richmond School Districts.
