Why your school should Wear it Wild
In the land of the koala, the quoll and the platypus, our mammals are the most distinctive in the world. 86% can’t be found anywhere else. Sadly, Australia has the highest mammal extinction rate in the world, and these iconic species are at risk of disappearing forever. Your school can help shine a spotlight on nature loss by Wearing it Wild this Earth Hour Schools Day and raising funds to help regenerate nature.
EARTH HOUR LESSON PLANS
WWF-Australia and Australia Post are excited to launch a series of curriculum-aligned educational resources designed to raise awareness among school students of Australia’s most iconic and loved animal, the koala.
Developed in conjunction with leading educational non-profit, Cool.org, the lessons have been developed to equip Aussie kids with crucial knowledge about biodiversity and the serious threats pushing koalas to extinction.
