- examine organisations that support sustainable food production in Australia
- empower students to make informed choices about sustainable food practices
- develop students' critical thinking about food systems and environmental impacts
- encourage students to take meaningful action in their school and local community.
Through a series of engaging lessons, students will learn about the challenges facing our food systems, particularly the threats to pollinators like bees, while developing practical knowledge about sustainable agriculture and food choices.
