Sustainability in Practice - an educational experience for young people
RETURN TO PRODUCTS & SERVICES INDEX
'Sustainability in Practice' is a comprehensive educational experience for young people to learn about the problems of sustainability and discover some of the solutions. The 'problem solvers' are typically in Years 5 and 6. In small groups of 10, they explore different topics; Water, Shelter, Energy, Waste, Food, Bio-diversity plus a mapping exercise done by all the 'problem-solvers'. A half-day visit is sufficient to cover three of these topics and an associated mapping exercise.

All
activities take place at the Hockerton Housing Project (HHP) site with
all necessary resources provided. Members
from the Hockerton Housing Project can also visit the school to prepare
'problem solvers' for their task! Teachers are
invited to a free after school 'come and see' event before committing to
an educational experience that they, or their pupils, won't regret!
HHP now has available a resource pack 'Sustainability in Practice—an educational experience for young people' linked to its programme of activities for school visits to HHP. Covering six topics it includes activity sheets for both the HHP visit and actions for after. It includes a detailed planning sheet, health & safety information and details of how the activities link to National Curriculum (Key Stage 2).

We aim to make a visit to the Hockerton Housing project, using the 'Sustainability
in Practice' Resource Pack, an educational
experience for young people (and of course their teacher’s) which is
unique, fun, exciting, developmental and even life changing!
