The Ollie Suite of Programs is a collection of interactive and educational CD ROM and Internet based programs. Each has been funded by industry and created by leading educational and environmental experts under the project management skills of Sustain Ability International.
These programs are aimed at children between the ages of 5 –13 years and bring together many of the issues related to sustainability under one umbrella, to create a one-stop resource for students as well as their teachers, community leaders and parents.
The latest Ollie Programs introduces the concept of sustainability and asks the user to Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Rethink their actions in the areas of Waste, Water, Energy, Air and Biodiversity. It does this within the context of local conditions and the local school educational guidelines where ever they are seen.
Since launching the original Ollie program in Victoria Australia in 1997, Ollie has been upgraded and localised for the United Kingdom and released both in 1999 and 2001.
The marketing team at Sustain Ability International has spent the last 12 months travelling extensively around the world with the aim to introduce Ollie to as many national markets as possible. With this hard work completed, Ollie is now set for the following releases;
