Clean Up Australia Events
Clean Up Australia Day
Every year the event encourages and inspires thousands of Australians to take to their local park, beach, bushland and streets and really help make a difference to their local environment. The next Clean Up Australia Day will be held on Sunday 4 March 2011
Business Clean Up Day
Organising a Clean Up Site is a great opportunity for businesses to engage with their local environment. We offer not just support in cleaning up your environment but also greening up your office. The next Business Clean Up Day will be held on Tuesday 28 February 2012.
Schools Clean Up Day
The event inspires the next generation to learn about their environment and make a real difference in their local community. It's a day when students,teachers and parents work together to clean up a Site significant to them. The next Schools Clean up Day will be held on Friday 2 March 2012.
Clean Up Every Day
As well as participating in the flagship Clean Up Australia Day event held on the first Sunday in March, we encourage communities, schools and businesses to organise their own Clean Up Day events at any time of the year.
Clean Up Dumping
Dumping rubbish is illegal. In 2011 Clean Up Australia is focusing our efforts on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria - a beautiful part of Australia. The event was held on Sunday 20 November 2011.
Great Northern Clean Up
The Great Northern Clean Up is a chance for communities across the top end of Australia (north of the Tropic of Capricorn) to get together and take part in Clean Up Day at a time more suited to the northern climate.
History
In 1989 an 'average Australian bloke' had a simple idea to make a difference in his own backyard - Sydney Harbour. This simple idea has now become the nation's largest community-based environmental event, Clean Up Australia Day.
