Resource Smart School Awards 2013
Sustainability Victoria's ResourceSmart Schools Awards recognise and reward the sustainability efforts of Victorian primary and secondary schools, and celebrate the work of teachers and students who are leading the way for future generations.
It doesn’t matter if you have just started your sustainability journey or have been excelling in sustainability for many years, the awards are open to EVERY primary and secondary school in Victoria!
The awards help boost your school’s profile and encourage your community to become involved, network with other schools and develop student leadership schools. Winners and finalists will share in more than $40,000 worth of cash and prizes and attend an exciting and prestigious awards ceremony in November.
