SCHOOL RESOURCES
'Focus On Sustainability' DVD and posters.
The DVD was produced as part of a project funded through the Environmental Trust
In partnership with Broken Hill City Council NetWaste developed an educational resource aimed at raising awareness about the things that an average family can easily during a normal day to achieve a more sustainable lifestyle.
High School students from Willyama and Broken Hill Schools were involved in the process of developing this resource. They completed the research wrote the script and are the stars of the show. The set of five posters that accompany the DVD highlight the key messages from the DVD.
