Welcome to the blog of Otago Polytechnic's Sustainable practice departmental Champions

The purpose of this blog is to share stories, resources, teaching and learning, examples of sustainable practice happening in Otago Polytechnic's academic departments.


Champions will post 3-5 examples per year of what is happening in the classrooms of their departments.


These posts will share teaching resources, students response, projects and assignments, examples of how it fits into the curriculum etc.


These quality examples may also be used by the Otago Polytechnic marketing department to share these stories with the community.


Enjoy.

Update from the School of Veterinary Nursing

The  School of Veterinary Nursing have been active over the last 2 years at least improving their sustainable practices and embedding it into programmes.  The further along the road we get, the more we are learning and the more we want to do. 

We have lots happening in our school, and in October we are having visits to our planning days by 2 sustainability experts.  Our goal is to next year have a sustainability audit undertaken so that we can have a clear vision of what else we need to do.

In the meantime I wanted to share with your our Sustainability tips of the week.................

These are shared with all our students via moodle and staff via email and insite.  Don;t forget to sign up and follow it. 

Kind Regards
