More than a Garden: Recognising Children's Sustainability Thinking (Ep 31)
What if the sustainability thinking you're looking for is already happening in your service—you just haven't been guided to see it?
In the first episode of a special five-part series, Reflect, Reconnect, and Reimagine Sustainability, Lili-Ann Kriegler and Bronwyn Cron from the Project Sustainability Collective share discoveries from their year-long work on embedding holistic sustainability with early childhood educators across Australia.
This conversation challenges the "add more activities" approach to sustainability. Instead, you'll discover how children demonstrate sustainability thinking every day—in how they share materials, care for living things, and navigate fairness. The question isn't what to add; it's what to notice.
Bron and Lil reveal why educators often miss these moments, what stops us from recognising the connections, and how small shifts in observation can transform your practice without adding to your workload.
