A new project has kicked off at Tobolsk's Kindergarten No. 30. The initiative titled EcoSport: Starting the Cycle is a grant winner of SIBUR’s Formula for Good Deeds social investment program.

The project’s goal is to build a dedicated environment-themed space equipped with two bike shredders that would amalgamate physical activity, conscious consumption practices, and creative ways of recycling secondary materials.

Yulia Plekhova, Deputy Director of Tobolsk’s Education Department:
"Many thanks to SIBUR, our strategic partner. This project is founded on a powerful eco-sport formula: bike shredders, movement, ecology. We see tremendous interest shown by preschoolers in learning about protecting the environment through these narrative forms. The kindergarten’s team has done well, keep up your great work."

The project's defining feature is a unique children's bike shredder designed specifically for preschool use. Children can now turn on the recycling process on their own thus helping transform everyday waste into usable resources. This experience will help cultivate an eco-conscious mindset from an early age while vividly illustrating the obvious connection between one’s personal actions and change on a more global scale.

Alisa Vagapova, Head of the EcoTobolsk environmental education project:
"EcoSport: Starting the Cycle is a superb example of an environmental mindset demonstrated by the kindergarten's staff and their students. It's a model that will certainly be replicated, as this is precisely the age when kids begin developing their first conscious environmental habits."

The new space also unlocks fresh potential for implementing eco-art and upcycling practices in the kindergarten's workshop. By using recycled materials in their creative projects children learn to apply innovative thinking. This also reinforces the concept that says that an object's value isn't limited just to its original intended purpose, but includes a potential for rebirth.

Earlier, with SIBUR's support, the kindergarten had built a sports ground featuring a GTO (Ready for Work and Defense) center and carried out a cultural and awareness program focused on preserving mosaic heritage which included laying out a mosaic trail.

Elena Belskaya, Director of Government Relations and Socio-Economic Projects at ZapSibNeftekhim:
"SIBUR remains committed to putting forward initiatives focusing on advancing an environmental culture and promoting circular economy principles. This educational platform has been using practical methods to clearly demonstrate to kindergarten children the value of recyclable resources and the importance of caring for one’s environment."
