WWF Earth Hour and the WWF Panda visit The Point Preschool

We were all so excited at the end of the year to have a visit from the WWF Earth Hour's Marni Ryan and the WWF Panda.  Why Documentaries filmed at our place over 2 days to create a DVD to inspire other schools to take up the sustainability challenge and to enter the Going Beyond the Hour - WWF Earth Hour Awards. We are the very proud winners of the 2011 Inaugural WWF Earth Hour People's Choice Award. 
 
The filming was a great experience and the children were amazing.   The highlight for the children was dancing with Panda to one of our favourite Peter Morgan songs. 
 
Check out the DVD at http://www.wwf.org.au/earthhour/wwf_earthhour_awards/education/  We hope you will be inspired!
