As educators, how can we address environmental topics in a way that minimises student disconnection or anxiety about these issues while motivating them to take action? Join Anne-Maree McInerney, General Manager of Gould League and a recognised global sustainability advisor, for a day-long exploration in the forest alongside experts in, biodiversity, drones and fire management. This professional development opportunity is designed to uplift and inspire teachers as they discover the long-term advantages of healthy mountain forests and their critical role in the future for our plants and animals as well as for humans.This knowledge will be reinforced through an outdoor walk in previously burned forest areas and a hands-on skills session, allowing teachers to experience first-hand what their students would encounter during an excursion. The program celebrates the magnificent tall trees of the Toolangi State Forest and the river system that sustains us, providing Melbourne’s water supply. This innovative approach to real-world learning offers a peek into the future of education, fostering resilience, creating jobs, and making positive contributions to society and the environment.
