Learning about our Earth…the planet that we live on.
Our project is a collaborative partnership between schools, industry and professional associations. We work together to provide students with engaging learning in Earth and Environmental Science, foster their better understanding of contemporary local and global environmental issues, empower their participation in informed debate. We support teachers with resources, training and funding to help teach Earth and Environmental Science in their schools. We have a particular focus on the Australian Curriculum and the need to provide high quality enquiry based teaching and learning for the Earth and Space sub-strand of the F-10 Science curriculum and the emerging senior secondary Earth and Environmental Science course.
Coming soon our NEW Website!
If you want to be one of the first to see our website have a look here a huge thank you to RESA for sponsoring our site.
Free to join! It is intended for both teachers and students to use. Student work and teaching resources can be uploaded and browsed by year level. For information on how to join contact our webmaster:

Geoscience Outreach Officer
This year we have Kelly Sharrad joining us as our Geoscience Outreach Officer. Her role is to promote and support the uptake of SACE Earth and Environmental Science in South Australian schools. Our subject centres around the themes of climate change, environmental responsibility and sustainability with the aim of empowering young people to take action against the biggest threat to their future.
As a not for profit organisation, all services we provide to schools are free of charge. If you would like to learn more about how to roll out Earth and Environmental Science at your school please contact Kelly Sharrad at

GPP Statement about Climate Change and Fossil Fuels
The Geoscience Pathways Project (GPP) firmly supports the United Nations Sustainable
Development goals and recognizes the imperative to transition away from fossil fuel
sourced energy as soon as possible.
The GPP sees earth science as providing critical skills and earth scientists as essential in
future climate action, sustaining our cities and communities, reducing poverty and
inequality and ensuring a future for life on land and below water.
The GPP encourages students to consider study and training pathways for careers
across the range of earth science, including energy transition, environmental geoscience
and careers in the exploration and extraction of the minerals and renewable energy that
are critical for the well being of society.
The GPP aims to help provide students with the necessary scientific skills to critically
navigate the transition to a low carbon economy and to assist in the development of a
sustainable future of our country and planet.
