Adventure Ecology School

Adventure Ecology School is a program that assists schools to develop as sustainable environmental and social learning environments.

It’s a whole school approach, with students at the centre of participation. The program outlines how to bring about informed, mindful and positive choices and actions that encourage respect and responsibility for the Planet, other species and all people.

Through a set of pathways, schools develop goals and objectives that lead to achievable actions and changes within their own physical and learning environments. These pathways inspire creativity, curiosity and critical thinking, and focus on young people as active participants in environmental and social sustainability.

As part of the program, schools receive accreditation, certificates, rewards and are featured in the Adventure Ecology Club as they complete pathways, in recognition of their achievements, through the Green Star Rating.

The more young people learn, collaborate and share ideas, exciting sustainability solutions will grow. We are all part of a natural system that can’t be changed or tamed to our liking. Rather, we need to learn how to manage ourselves within nature’s systems. Whilst we live in a world full of challenges, it is also a world full of solutions – who better to implement them than us?
