Kate will give you lots of laughs and encouragement and may challenge your thinking when it comes to what you need when you become new parents. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe question is… Why do we have a waste issue?  Can we continue to think it is not our problem?

I learned so much and she made me realize there is no need to be perfect we just need to all do something”\nThis course is designed for you to complete at your own pace. You can sit down and work your way through the modules all at once\, or you can do it bit by bit when you have the energy – it’s your call! \nThe topics for this course include: \n\nIntro/What’s the problem?\nLandfill\nRecycling\nWaste Water\nProducts: Feeding & Baby Food\nProducts: Cloth Nappies 101\nWashing Cloth Nappies\nProducts: Extra for experts\n\nThe coolest bit? Not only do you get the most up-to-date and effective waste minimisation education out there\, but you are also sent out a goodie bag full of waste minimisation products (Including a couple cloth nappies) worth $100 so that you can take your brand new knowledge and inspiration and put it into action! \nTicket price: $27.
