September 29: Custodians of Place, It’s Up to All of Us – Dalia Mikhail from Noosa Environmental Education Hub

The Noosa Environmental Education Hub, led by Dalia Mikhail, engenders the next generation of environmental custodians by providing engaging opportunities for real life education. Noosa EEHub programs provide students with an opportunity to work alongside our region’s environmental experts on real life projects. Noosa EEHub has localised student learning through programs such as Bushfires in the Biosphere which teaches students about traditional use of fire for land management, fire behaviour as well as how our local ecosystems respond to fire.  The group also facilitates the Noosa Youth Advocacy Group which provides a voice for our region’s youth. 

The Friday Environment Forum, to be held on Sept 29th in the school holidays, is designed for the whole family and will incorporate hands-on activities for the young and young-at -heart. Come along to learn how everyone can be custodians of place through the engaging programs available for young people. Explore the Oyster Gardening Project baskets and the critters that inhabit them in this hands-on activity, as part of the forum. There are so many great initiatives happening for young people in our patch!

  Everyone is welcome at the NPA Environment Centre, 5 Wallace Drive, Noosaville. The forum starts at 10:30 am and morning tea is available at 10-10.25 am. Free admission. Donations welcome- $5 by “tap & go” at the door.  

 Join the bird observers at 8.30 am in the carpark for interpretive birding.
