Mission

Gould League is an independent not-for-profit organisation in Victoria with a long and proud history of environmental and sustainability education.

We help teachers boost the impact of their science and sustainability curriculum, connect students with their natural world and empower the community with positive messages and practical actions to live more sustainably. We do this via Excursions, Incursions, Teacher Professional Development, community programs as well as books and posters.

Environmental Excursions and Incursions

For over 100 years, Gould League has been provided engaging opportunities for students of all ages to learn in, about and for the environment through a suite of programs in Greater Melbourne.  We currently have over 35 programs for K to year 12 students across 4 sites: Ricketts Point Marine Sanctuary, Toolangi State Forest , Beaconsfield Flora and Fauna Reserve and Wetlands and our Sustainability Education Centre at Cheltenham.  We also deliver incursions to YOUR school including the delivery of FREE waste incursions on behalf of a number of local councils. Check out our student programs.

Team building, education programs and recreational events are also available for business, government and community groups.

Teacher Professional Development

Up-skilling teachers is just as important as the programs we deliver for students.  Check out our current PD programs.
