Green Collect: Transforming school environments and mindsets: Circular economy furniture, supplies and sustainability programs

Give school spaces and students a sustainability boost with Green Collect, a social enterprise turning furniture, resources and education into impactful circular economy solutions.

Immerse learners in a hands-on sustainability experience
With over 15 years in environmental education, Green Collect brings sustainability frameworks and practices to life for learners of all ages.

Our onsite programs and tours provide a highly engaging experience for students with
practical, hands-on activities and learning relevant to sustainability and social justice curriculums.

Students will gain insights into the operations of a social enterprise, while seeing firsthand how
resources are processed to avoid landfill. With the opportunity to participate in various testing and tear-down activities, this memorable experience will build understanding of solutions that can enable more circular use of resources at school and at home.

The Victorian Department of Education recently engaged Green Collect to develop Circular Economy learning resources that reflect best-practice knowledge and responses to waste and resource lifecycles. Located in Melbourne’s inner west, our programs and excursions can be adapted for a range of ages and curriculum objectives.

With Green Collect, you can buy affordable pre-loved designer furniture from top Australian brands and contribute to positive sustainability outcomes.

Our furniture has been sourced, cleaned and prepared by our incredible team. We run work and training programs for people from refugee backgrounds, creating a safe and inclusive workspace to upskill. Your purchase also creates a positive social impact! Shop online for our full furniture collection or visit our flagship store in Braybrook and experience our furniture showroom.

Source sustainable school supplies
Maximise positive environmental impact in every classroom by sourcing reclaimed art and school supplies from Green Collect. We save still-good supplies from businesses and curate salvaged materials boxes that are perfect for creating and making.

Our boxes are a cost effective solution that demonstrates sustainability by minimising demand on natural resources.

Choose from a pre-made box or customise your own to suit your classroom’s needs, with a range
of items to select, including bulldog clips, cardstock, markers, plastic spirals and more! Inspire the artists and makers in your classroom with materials that have been saved from landfill.
