Dexter is a character to help educate school children on the benefits of sustainability and recycling. Agsafe have developed a curriculum-based education lesson plan and activities for students in Year 4, 5 and 6. This also incorporates information on how to utilise the drumMUSTER program.
The resources provided on the Beating the Drum project support the development of Years 4, 5 and 6 students’ understanding of the need for responsible approaches to using the Earth’s resources, ie by ‘reducing, recycling and reusing’, leading to a healthier environment. The resources aim to extend existing school recycling initiatives to embrace the idea of ‘no waste’ or closed loop recycling.
