Cool Australia is a not-for-profit organisation that provides award winning, curriculum-linked free access* resources for teachers and students. Cool Australia is educating young Australians for a sustainable future. Our vision is for every Australian student to leave school with a clear understanding of our natural world (natural capital), how it supports our very existence and the responsibility we all have to ensure it’s valued properly and invested in. The mission of Cool Australia is to provide online educational material and support to the teaching community. We bring sustainability and our environment into Australian classrooms, providing teachers with engaging, fun and informative learning activities and units of work on a whole range of topics. We create original units of work and learning activities that can simply be downloaded from the Cool Australia website and taken straight into the classroom. The learning activities are year level specific, from foundation to year 10 and linked to Australian curriculum standards. For the older students, there are inquiry-based learning activities that seek to broaden and deepen students understanding of how our world works. For the younger students this topic is explored through literacy, numeracy, social awareness, creativity and imagination.
