| The
aim of the non-profit website easterbilby.com.au
is to provide an educational resource for Australian primary
school children and teachers. The website is in support
of the Save the Bilby Fund and is sponsored by Australian
chocolate manufacturer Darrell Lea which donates money
to the Fund through the sale of chocolate Easter bilbies.
The website includes resources for teachers educating
students in Early Stage 1 through to Stage 3 in order
to help foster the ideals of conservationism and environmentalism
amongst Australian youth.
These
educational resources have been designed and prepared
by experienced practising teachers currently working
within the state education system. Each Stage comprises
three to four lesson plans that address the key curriculum
areas: mathematics, literacy (talking and listening,
reading and writing) and visual arts.
