Using Your Diary

On July 12th 2010, the Green Lane Diary program pilot kickstarted in the schools, homes and communties of tens of thousands of 8-13 year olds across Australia.

 

The Green Lane Diary is a curriculum linked education program designed by environmental educators to help 8-13 year old children become aware of the stresses our planet confronts and how sustainable living can make a difference.

 

By working through topics from water, waste, energy and biodiversity, young people turn 10 weeks of discovery into a Green Scrapbook which can go into the draw to win terrific prizes!
