Education
Recycling is easy when you know how.
At Visy, we're happy to share our knowledge with businesses, schools and the community to promote awareness of the value and importance of recycling.
Visy not only provides recycling services to schools, but we also provide education programs to help teachers and students understand how each product is recycled - so that everyone can learn to recycle as much as possible!
Visy Enviromaniacs
Visy Enviromaniacs is our online education game, which can be played either in the classroom or at home. Aimed at primary school students in years 3 to 6, it focuses on the benefits of taking practical actions to help preserve and protect our environment. Find out more
Visy education centres
Aimed at school students in years 4 to 12, our education program is based on the National Schools Curriculum, and operates at five centres across Australia including Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, and one centre in Auckland, New Zealand.
These education centres engage students in an interactive audio/visual presentation featuring the five categories of packaging products - glass, paper, plastic, steel and aluminium. Students participate in a group task that challenges their behaviours and attitudes to how they recycle, and are then taken on a tour of the Visy facilities to help them better understand the recycling process.
