Connecting Council with Curriculum

Gladstone Regional Council is committed to working with local schools to provide a diverse range of learning programs, educational experiences and support for students, teachers and schools.  

The Connecting Council with Curriculum initiative aims to inform teachers about Council’s resources and programs which directly align with curriculum and inspire the next generation. 
 
It also allows genuine engagement with schools where Council officers can better understand how Council can improve programming and support to local schools.
