School programs
Willoughby City Council assists local schools with environmental education that is linked to the NSW school curriculum. The local area boasts significant natural assets and local history; and all our local schools have the unique gift of being in walking distance to a bushland reserve or park.
Activities are designed to be fun, positive and a whole-learning experience for students.
Nature activities offered:
- Guided bushwalks and outdoor learning experiences
- High school geography excursions
- The Willoughby Wildlife Storybook with year 5’s
- Native plantings and habitat creation (within school grounds)
- Involvement in Citizen Science student activities
Sustainability activities offered:
Contact the Environment Team to discuss ideas on how your school could participate.
