Programs and activities
Activities that we offer at Holloways Beach Environmental Education Centre (HBEEC) can be grouped into two main focus areas:
The two focus areas have a clearly identified core learning intent.
Sustainability
Students will understand that we need to manage our resources and demonstrate the behaviours and choices that ensure a sustainable future – “enough for all forever”.
Wellbeing
Students will understand and demonstrate the skills and processes needed to be an effective team (PDF, 50KB) and/or team member and to develop personal wellbeing.
