From our ambassador BRYCE COURTENAY....
‘In Australia we are very fortunate that a very high standard of education, based on the essential foundations of numeracy and literacy, is available to all. We are indeed just fortunate to be in this wonderful country. However, along with that privilege comes a certain responsibility. It is up to each one of us to contribute within the scope of our individual means and abilities to the welfare of our wondrous country. Our natural environment is a treasure. Once lost much of it is irreplaceable… and the bits are slipping away. A clear way to invest in the future is through the education of our youth and there is no better program than SOS Aussies to promote the appropriate spirit in students of all ages. Positive attitudes and actions are a product of knowledge, understanding, awareness and experience. SOS Aussies presents it all in an environmental education program of outstanding quality which is recognized as the leader in the field. It offers an unforgettable experience which will carry its influence for years to come.” Bryce Courtenay 2005
From the highly respected DR. HELEN CALDICOTT....

It is without a doubt THE BEST in its field and offers a program of unsurpassed quality and relevance to todays world and its diminishing ecosystems.
It is a MUST DO, a MUST SEE! … an investment in our kids and this great country.” Dr. Helen Caldicott 2005. Paediatrician, President of the Nuclear Policy Research Institute.
