Regular price   $ 39.95 Sale price   $ 29.99 Save $ 9.96

Forty-three ready-to-use experience cards built around the 7Rs of sustainability — aligned with EYLF and MTOP V2.0 and designed for children aged 3–12. Take the guesswork out of planning a balanced, meaningful sustainability program with prompts that link to outcomes and inspire genuine connection.

Do you find it difficult to ensure you have the right balance of sustainable experiences in your program? You're not alone! With so much to include and endless paperwork, things can easily fall through the cracks. Many educators feel frustrated attempting to create a balanced program. But, with Sustainability being such a significant component of EYLF and MTOP, it is important it ensure it isn't under-represented in your program. 

Here is a great resource to inspire a creative, sustainable program suitable for children 3-12 years that will ALSO save you time and frustration!

We designed this pack of 43 cards to prompt and inspire you to create a sustainable program that will foster children’s connection with their world. They provide inspiration for easy yet educational, sustainable learning experiences and practices you can implement today.

Each card points to a resource pack with instructions, tips, and extension ideas. Some include great templates, while others have step-by-step instructions. Simply use the QR Code in your pack to access the full library of resources. (Valued at $149.99)

These cards are broken up into the 7 Rs to support you in planning and implementing the experiences. These include:

  1. Refuse: Avoid unnecessary waste.
  2. Reduce: Minimise waste.
  3. Reuse: Utilise materials more than once.
  4. Repair: Fix instead of discard.
  5. Recycle: Repurpose materials.
  6. Respect: Foster respect for the environment.
  7. Reflect: Think about the strong connections between children and the world around them.

Grab Deck 2 to also explore the 7Rs in the context of the three dimensions of sustainability.

    There are also eight cards for Integrated Projects so you can expand your Sustainable Practices across your service as a whole and include it in your Quality Improvement Plan.

    These cards work best when used with Our Sustainable Year Wall Calendar in which each R has its own space to record your experiences. The Calendar is designed to be completed alongside the children and act as a record of sustainable practice for families and assessors to view.

    There are endless ways to use the cards in your service! Use the prompts to select an experience based on children’s interests, or use a ‘lucky dip’ method to choose one at random and ask the children if they would like to try it.

    Guarantee your program is addressing the Sustainability principle and learning outcome 2. Our experiences also draw in other learning outcomes, including fostering children's identity, their sense of wellbeing, active learning skills, and communication so you can also complete your Weekly Programming and Reflection Diary at the same time!

    That's right, they are the perfect tool to save you time, inspire a creative program AND improve your service's sustainability practices.
