Abstract

Technological developments brought various problems along with the benefits they provide. With the
development of technology, problems have been addressed with practical solutions to meet the
increasing needs, and these solutions have not been thought to lead to other problems in the long run.
Other problems such as environmental pollution, climate change, increase in carbon emissions,
excessive energy consumption are on the agenda of 21st century as a result of problems such as distorted urbanization, transformation into consumer society and unconscious consumption of natural
resources. It has been revealed that a large majority of the energy resources on Earth are consumed
during the construction and use of buildings. The need for the pre-school education buildings
increases, where the energy consumption is relatively high, due to the rise of the young population and
the number of the families living in the urban areas. The pre-school education period is a fast and
intensive learning period in which the child's intelligence development is largely completed. In the
development of the child's personality, having a qualified education in suitable and environment has
great importance. Buildings of preschool where the concept of sustainability is taught to children are
also examplary structures which serve as models to society. Bahriye Üçok Kindergarten is the first
sample of pre-school education buildings in Turkey which was built with an understanding respectful
to the environment. The method of study is the evaluation of the findings obtained after observations
made in the school and interviews with educators. In this context, it is considered that the
kindergarten, which constitutes the sampling area of the study, will enhance the students' working
performances by providing the students with environmental protection awareness and providing a
better learning environment. It is also anticipated with this work that pre-school education buildings
built in sustainable understanding will increase.
