Sustainability in Action
It’s not always about what we are learning, but what we are learning to do about it. With a wide range of sustainability lessons this term, students report what they have learned and how they are taking action!
Year 1 is learning about sources of energy, so…
“We can turn off the electricity when we are not using it,”- Harry.
“When my brother left the light on his room, I turned it off.”-Clementine
“I closed the door to our classroom because the heater was on.”-Vairaj
Year 2 is learning about caring for God’s Creation, so…
“I know to wash plastic before putting it in the recycle bin.” -Maddison
“We can eat bugs instead meat. They are healthy and easy to farm, and full of protein.” -Henry
