Ripples of action: Strengthening environmental competency in an early childhood centre

Abstract

How can early childhood centres develop environmental competency? This case study shows how, as children, teachers, and families interact to establish and maintain environmentally friendly systems, such as recycling, they support and encourage each other to extend and improve their practices. This ripples out to influence what families do at home and in the wider community.
