GEEP Curriculum
The goals of the Gravatt Environmental Education Program are to:
Educate children about the natural world around them, so that they can develop an appreciation for it;
Educate children about where their food comes from and what it takes to prepare, plant, take care of, and harvest from the garden;
Teach them different ways to think/how to think about the environment, rather than what to think;
Inspire them to be more involved and invested in the environment, so they can be resourceful and responsible stewards of our Earth;
Teach them why this knowledge is important and why it matters;
Will provide them an education that is hands-on and relevant to what they are learning in their classrooms at school (whether it be in science, history, or language arts)
