Webinar: a cup-filling approach to sustainability in ECE
Implementing education for sustainability in a way that’s powerful for children, fulfilling for educators and transformative for centres.
Are you an early childhood educator or leader looking to make a real difference, but feeling overwhelmed by adding ‘sustainability’ to your never-ending to-do list?
In this 1h webinar we share lots of good news! You can turn many play experiences into learning for a sustainable world starting from where you are: working with EYLF 2.0, your unique place and strengths, children’s interests and your current intentions.
Dorothée Seeto from Endless Play Studio and early childhood educational leader Lenka Miklos take you through some of the content of their new book 'A changemaker's guidebook to a regenerative classroom'. Drawing on 4 years of research, they show you how to go beyond gardening and recycling to prepare children to thrive within the limits of our planet.
Watch the webinar to learn how to:
Drive education for sustainability without burdening educators
Onboard educators who haven't traditionally been interested in sustainability
Make sure sustainability initiatives don't fizzle out
Embed sustainability in all contexts for all ages
Start without feeling overwhelmed
You absolutely can drive education for sustainability in a way that’s powerful for children, fulfilling for educators and transformative for centres.

This has roots in her training in Sociology and beyond that in her lived experience of the natural and social worlds.
Her approach is influenced by her childhood in socialist Slovakia, where she connected with nature and learned traditional knowledge from her elders.
