Nestled next to the Deagon wetlands and just a couple of hundred metres from the bay, Nashville State School is actually in the northern Brisbane suburb of Brighton. With the wetlands and bay in such close proximity, it is only natural that we have an on-going interest in caring for our environment.

We have many environmental and sustainability projects currently underway at our school, including our rainforest area "Mac's Patch"; our edible garden "Garden of Promise"; composting; worm farms; the use of energy efficient light bulbs; bird breeding boxes in trees; solar power roof panels and large water tanks to provide water for our toilets and for our gardens.
