In Year 8 Humanities, several classes have studied global issues, the UN, human rights and the UN Sustainable Development Goals and how we can take daily actions to contribute to their fulfilment. The students have then "Taken Action" to make a difference.

Some are starting compost systems, some are building veggie gardens, some are educating their families, some are spreading awareness, some are limiting resource use at home such as putting a bucket under the shower to catch excess water, and some are making handkerchiefs for the rest of the class to use if needed over the coming weeks and months!

We also have a display of a range of their ideas at school - we can all contribute to making the world a little bit better through our daily habits and actions.
