| Summary: | "Every Child" is Australia's premier early childhood publication, aimed at anyone involved in the care and education of children from birth to eight years--in particular child care professionals, teachers, child care students and the parents of young children. Published quarterly, it contains informative and entertaining articles on such issues as early childhood curriculum, ethics, health and professional development. Early childhood educators have long recognised the importance of creative activities and are passionate about promoting children's creativity. The theme of this issue of "Every Child" is sustainability. It explores big-picture environmental and sustainability issues and provides some practical ideas. The articles in this issue discuss the sometimes controversial role of zoos in society; building a childcare centre that incorporates sustainability while meeting the diverse requirements of children and staff; and the serious problem of making informed decisions about cleaning products. Feature articles in this issue include: (1) Action across Australia: Working towards a Sustainable Future (Sue Elliot); (2) Water Aware: Making Services Smarter (Barbara Jensen); (3) Indigenous Culture and Sustainability: Exploring the Great Barrier Reef in the Classroom (Fred Nucifora); (4) Sorting It out: A Problem-Solving Approach to Recycling (Sonya Plunkett-Smith and Amy Jones); and (5) Rethinking Equity Environments and Everyday Sustainability (Maria Magiropoulos and Miriam Giugni).
