The document discusses sustainability efforts at the Wentworth Point redevelopment project. It describes how solar panels, water tanks, and sustainable window shutters were used to make the development more environmentally friendly. Solar panels provide natural lighting and heating, water tanks capture rainwater for reuse, and window shutters allow natural ventilation to reduce energy costs. These solutions help ensure the area can be maintained for future generations in an environmentally sustainable way.

3. • Sustainability is the earth having the
ability to keep on going. It means that the
environment can continue into the future
and go on forever. Sustainability from our
perspective is the world continuing to do
what it was made to do. It is the
development of our buildings that meets
the needs of the present lifestyle without
affecting the future generations and their
needs.

4. • We have considered Sustainability as an important aspect in
re-developing Wentworth Point, the redevelopment has been
built in a way that results in no harm on the natural environment
around the area. We have considered using three sustainable
solutions to make Wentworth point as sustainable as it can
possible be. Having sustainability carried throughout the
development means that the area of Wentworth Point will be as
clean and sustainable as it can be.

5. • Throughout redeveloping Wentworth point we have considered
using ecologically sustainable considerations and by doing this
we have used water tanks, solar panels for lighting/heating and
sustainable window shutters that create natural lighting,
ventilation.

6. Having solar panels to create natural light reduces the amount of
electricity used to usually generate lighting and heating. We have
decided to use solar panels on our buildings at Wentworth point
as it is better for the environment and is sustainable as they last
for a long time.

7. • Water tanks are designed to capture and hold rainwater as it
falls naturally onto your property during showers and storms.
Having water tanks next to every building gives Wentworth
Point the chance to preserve and save water. These water tanks
are sustainable as they last for a long time and they reduce the
amount of money spent on water coming through pipes to the
buildings on Wentworth Point.

8. • Glass louvres are very sustainable as they allow natural lighting and fresh
air to enter the building. They are very convenient for our buildings at
Wentworth Point as they are sustainable and are very common throughout
all the buildings that we have constructed. Glass shutters are sustainable
as instead of having electrical lights and air-conditioning these shutters
provide natural lighting and natural ventilation.

9. • In developing and constructing the
Discovery centre at Wentworth Point we
have considered these three sustainable
ideas as it will benefit the building and it
will give the building the ability to go on
and be as sustainable as it can possibly be.
They will benefit the whole community at
Wentworth Point and the community will be
a sustainable and happy one to be apart
of.
