More than recycling - social, economic, and environmental sustainability with the Our Sustainable Year Calendar, this digital course shows you how.

Sustainability in Early Childhood Education and Care is more than worm farms and recycling bins — it’s about fostering a culture of care, responsibility, and connection to the world around us. But with busy schedules and competing priorities, it’s easy for sustainability to become an afterthought.

The Our Sustainable Year Calendar Guide is your step-by-step guide to using the calendar as a meaningful tool for weaving sustainability into your planning, environments, and everyday decisions — across the entire year.

'Another fabulous course, thank you!"

Created to support EYLF v2.0 and the National Quality Standard, this course helps you shift from “occasional” to intentional sustainability, with practical, achievable ideas tailored for early learning settings.

This isn’t just a calendar — it’s a tool for embedding sustainable thinking, doing, and being across your entire year.
