MobileMuster Schools Competition (years 5 & 6)

This unit contains 3 lessons for Years 5 & 6 and is designed to support you and your students to produce quality artwork for the MobileMuster Schools Competition. The 2024 MobileMuster Schools Competition is open and the theme is ‘What's in a phone’. Students can choose between creating a drawing, photograph or short film, in any style or genre.

Artworks should aim to encourage the community to recycle their old or unused mobile phones. The environmental benefits gained from recycling mobile phones include avoiding future greenhouse gas emissions, saving energy, protecting the environment and conserving natural resources. 

MobileMuster is the product stewardship program of the mobile phone industry and is accredited by the federal government. It is voluntarily funded by all of the major handset manufacturers and network carriers to provide a free mobile phone recycling program in Australia to the highest environmental standard. The program is committed to raising awareness and educating the community on why it is important to recycle.
