ABC Splash is asking students to use their STEAM skills to create solutions to Australia’s waste problems!

Students need to identify and research one waste problem identified in ABC TV’s War on Waste and come up with a 90-second pitch for a solution that has been designed using STEAM thinking (science, technology, engineering, arts and maths).

In 2017 KAB are launching our second Foundation for Environmental Education program, Young Reporters for the Environment. This program engages students aged 11-21 in local environmental sustainability issues.   To kick start the program in Australia we have 10 x $500 grants on offer for high schools to implement a community action day to share their hard work and findings with their community.

Does your school need an outdoor learning space? The Yates Gardening Junior Landcare Grants for Gardens program is offering 15 grants for fun, hands-on garden projects that will help young people learn about gardening, sustainability and our natural environment. Grants are worth over $2000.
