Welcome to Sustainability in Primary Education
Welcome to "Sustainability in Primary Education".
As busy teachers, parents and students ourselves, we built this site to help you embed sustainability quickly and easily into your primary program, as well as share your favourite lessons with others so that we can all learn, grow and improve our sustainability teaching together. We have designed this resource to be user-friendly, interactive, and organic.

The Share Your Ideas page is where you can use Diigo, Twitter, Pinterest and Facebook to connect with others about sustainability.
The About Us page tells you about the designers of this website.
And finally, the Forum where you can interact with fellow educators.
If you enjoy using our site and browsing the resources we have compiled, please take the time to visit one of our social media sites to add a comment, respond to our poll, come and have a chat in our forum, or leave feedback and ideas in the comments section at the bottom of each page. Together, we can take the stress out of teaching sustainability in the primary classroom.
