Rethinking Waste: From Waste to Action

How can schools help students see waste differently and turn sustainability learning into meaningful action?

This professional learning workshop explores waste through multiple perspectives, encouraging participants to investigate the properties, value and potential of everyday materials that are often discarded. Through hands-on activities and real-world examples, participants will discover practical ways to reduce waste, recover resources and build sustainability into teaching, learning and school operations.

Participants will:

• investigate opportunities to reduce, reuse, repair, repurpose and recover resources

• engage with practical, inquiry-based learning approaches that support student action

• develop strategies for creating whole-school, action-based sustainability programs

• access curriculum-linked resources and classroom-ready activities

Participants will leave with practical tools, resources and ideas to help students and school communities rethink waste, make informed decisions about resource use, and take meaningful action towards a more sustainable future.

Afternoon tea will be provided.

This event will take place at 480 Northbourne Av. Dickson from 4:00 pm for 4:15 start till 6:00pm.
