For schools
This new online resource site was launched in July as a component of the North East CMA website.
The School Environment Education Directory (SEED) North East has been established to provide teachers, educators and environment staff easy access to information on environmental sustainability that relates to North East Victoria.
Why SEED?All living organisms on our planet start life as a seed. These seeds contain genetic information required for the seed to grow into lifeforms. The word seed can also mean to grow; a source of beginning; or to furnish growth and development.
The SEED North East Steering Committee hope all people accessing and using the SEED North East information sow their seeds of sustainable knowledge and share this knowledge with as many students, people and communities as possible.
What is SEED?There are 3 components to SEED:
- The SEED website that:
- Connects teachers, students and environment staff to curriculum information relating to waste, water, biodiversity, greenhouse and general sustainability information.
- Provides an up to date list of curriculum resources and relevant website links
- Provides teachers a contact list of local environment extension staff
- The creation of curriculum material to VELS standards with a North East Victoria focus
- The organising of School Environment Education Directory Days (SEED Days) that provide hand-on sustainability activities for students within the North East catchment area.
