Teacher professional learning

We offer professional learning for teachers to build skills and confidence in teaching outdoors and in environmental and sustainability education. Teachers gain practical tools, hands-on activities and program ideas they can use in their classrooms, school grounds and local environments.

Our workshops are led by Field of Mars Environmental Education Centre teachers and other subject experts. They are aligned with NSW curriculum requirements.
