Up the Creek & Down the Drain at Ithaca Creek

Healthy Waterways, in partnership with Pullenvale Environmental Education Centre, recently held an Up the Creek & Down the Drain(UCDD) teacher training workshop at Ithaca Creek. UCDD is an Australian Curriculum and C2C aligned educational experience that utilises a storythread approach to connect primary school students with the waterways. Find out more about UCDD.

Both teachers and other water educators from across the region were given the opportunity to learn how to apply UCDD, and the pedagogical tools that underpin it, to support teaching and learning in local schools. Two local sites have been adapted to Up the Creek & Down the Drain for use by teachers and schools – Coal Creek at Ipswich and Ithaca Creek in Brisbane.

Please contact Healthy Waterways if you are interested in utilising the current UCDD sites, or implementing UCDD for local teachers and schools.
