#changemaker Projects
Imagine a world where there is NO POVERTY and ZERO HUNGER. We have GOOD HEALTH AND WELL-BEING, QUALITY EDUCATION and there is GENDER EQUALITY with REDUCED INEQUALITIES. Our CLIMATE ACTION is improving LIFE BELOW WATER as well as LIFE ON LAND and there is CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION for everyone.
This is the world that all of us here at Stopsley can create. We are all #changemakers and we can all make a difference.
As part of our efforts to achieve the Global Goals, our children lead on our #changemakers action projects, where they design and complete a project related to the Global Goals that will support the goal locally, nationally and globally, empowering every child in our school to become #changemakers and help change our world for the better.
In the last term, we chose to work towards improving our school's ecological footprint (which linked with the following Global Goals):
11 - Sustainable cities and communities
12 - Responsible consumption and production
13 - Climate action
14 - Life below water
15 - Life on land
When choosing our #changemakers project, our Smart Council canvases the views of every child in the school and determines what action we can take to raise the profile of the Global Goals and help to achieve them. The children lead on the design and implementation of the project, as well as holding an awareness event to educate others.
