Cool Australia – Sustainable Living

Cool Australia is a very cool website with free curriculum resources for Australian and New Zealand teachers and their students. Cool Australia provides two services: the creation of educational materials and online professional development courses. They are an organisation partnering with educators who are interested in empowering students to address current social, economic and environmental challenges.

It really is worth spending sometime checking out their resources www.coolaustralia.org

Austin’s Butterfly will help you appreciate how this Learn@Home resource teaches children to look closely at insects in their garden.

Testing topsoil at home is another exmaple of a Learn@Home resource encouraging children to investigate the properties of topsoil in their garden. An ideal activity when preparing to grow your own vegetables.
