Unsure where to start

Engage your team, build your knowledge & confidence, and develop a clear plan so that you know where you’re going & what you need to do to get there
Imagine...
💭 Feeling confident in your knowledge and ability to bring sustainability to life for children.
💭 Successfully integrating sustainability into your Policies, Program & Practices.
💭 Exploring sustainability with children - building your understanding together.

Starting Sustainability can be tricky.
It's easy to get overwhelmed - sustainability is an idea that can be challenging to get your head around, let alone working out how to manage it with children.
Maybe you're the passionate sustainability champion, feeling unsupported. Left to do everything yourself. Exhausted and frustrated, you're at a loss to know how to get others on board.
Perhaps you've worked really hard just to get the basics done - worm farm, veggie garden, recycling. Worried that adding anything else to your to-do list is just not doable...
What if there was another way..?
What if you could create a whole of service approach to actually embedding sustainability, not just implement random, ad-hoc or tokenistic actions...
An approach that builds on your strengths, engages your team, is driven by the interests of the children & connects you to your community…
Would you be interested..?
Yes, I'm interested!
Introducing the Sustainability Kick Start Program
This Program has been designed to support you to:
- Build your sustainability knowledge - what does it mean? What does it look like? Why is it important?
- Get everyone on the same page and heading in the same direction;
- Learn strategies to engage your team, children, families and community and stop doing it all yourself; and
- Move forward with clarity, confident that you know where you’re going and how to do to get there.
This is NOT a one size fits all approach. I will give you the knowledge and know-how to effectively implement this approach - in a way that works for you and your team.
Our approach is flexible and adaptable to a range of settings, and applicable no matter where you are on your sustainability journey.
We're NOT going to teach you the ins and outs of climate change, what you can and can't recycle, or what goes in your worm farm. We will focus on the mind set, skills and tools you need to effectively embed sustainability across your service.
We support you to build your understanding of sustainability themes and concepts as you explore, discover and learn with the children.
Start with action and create opportunities for discussion & build momentum.
We’ll support you to implement your first steps and make sure you have all that you need to get things moving in the right direction.
Yes, this is the support I need!
You've been UPGRADED!

- 4 x Group Coaching Sessions via zoom. Keep yourself on track and moving forward. Celebrate your progress, troubleshoot any challenges and connect with like minded educators.
- Email support whenever you need it. Got questions, feeling overwhelmed or unsure? - send me an email and I'll do what I can to help get you back on track!
- Priority access to any new resources or special offers!
Great if you're like me a struggle to make it to the end of an online program on your own. I love a bit more support, personal connection and accountability to get me through!

Kathy - Director
"I would recommend this Program to anyone who is wanting to make their sustainability plans and goals a reality in 2022. The program helped our Service clarify what sustainability means to us, assess where we were currently at on our sustainability journey, what aspects of sustainability were achievable for our Centre’s needs and resources, and provided tools to help us reflect, plan and carry out sustainable practices that included all of our stakeholders.
At the end we were able to transfer all of the documentation into our Quality Improvement Plan.
We really enjoyed the program and felt a great sense of achievement and clarity at the end.
We encourage everyone to have a go! Thanks Bron."

Hi, I’m Bron. I'm an environmental scientist and sustainability educator specializing in early years. I spent many years working with Local and State Government, Small Business, Not-For-Profits, Community Groups, Schools and early childhood services.
I love helping passionate educators and leaders embed sustainability - engaging their team, children, families and community.
I have been developing and implementing sustainability education and engagement programs for over 20 years. I’ve learnt all the tips, lessons and strategies I’ll share with you, the hard way. I’ve felt the frustration and pain of banging your head against the wall, getting nowhere fast; and the challenge of getting others on board. I’ve heard all the objections. But, over time, I've discovered the most effective strategies for addressing them all, and saw some amazing transformations!
YES, I'm ready to gear up & embed sustainability!
If you're ready to stop going in circles, fighting to make any progress or doing sustainability all on your own, join us for the NEW & IMPROVED Sustainability Kick Start Program!
