Sustainable Centre Visits

Sustainable centre visits and networking opportunities are planned throughout the year at various locations around and beyond Melbourne. Venues such as early childhood services, gardens, zoos, recycling stations etc which are actively participating in education for sustainability are chosen to provide members with ideas and inspiration to feedback to their own centres.

Upcoming Visit- 

Isabel Henderson Kindergarten

We are thrilled to invite you to our Sustainable Centre Visit at Isabel Henderson Kindergarten. This is a fantastic opportunity for educators to come together and explore sustainable practices in action.

During the visit, you’ll have the chance to see how sustainability principles are embedded in everyday practice at Isabel Henderson Kindergarten. Engage in meaningful discussions with fellow educators, share ideas, and gain fresh inspiration to bring back to your own centres. Whether you’re looking to improve your sustainability initiatives or learn new strategies, this event promises to offer practical insights that will enhance your practice and support a more sustainable future for early childhood education.

North Fitzroy Childcare Cooperative

Our Sustainable Centre Visit to look around North Fitzroy Childcare Cooperative and participate in an upcycling fabric and sewing workshop was such fun!

In this workshop we explored ideas around upcycling fabric and sewing resources for use in children’s programs.  Participants had the opportunity to sew an apron or cape from pre loved fabric and hear about North Fitzroy Cooperative’s Education for Sustainability journey.

Thanks to Anthony and Nadia for hosting, Ann for sharing her upcycling fabric and sewing skills and canadian visitor Dr Debra Harwood for joining us.
