Leaders for Change

Alec, Nathan, Hilaac, Azura and Luci

Culture Week coming soon!

In the past 8 weeks, we have had the privilege to take part in a Leaders for Change program. We learnt about cultural diversity and anti-racism with Mohamed Semra from Endeavour Youth. Our goal was to come up with a project to celebrate the cultural diversity at our school. We decided to hold a Culture Week.

 

We have been brainstorming and writing cool ideas for celebrations of culturally diverse foods, performances, decorations and fun activities that Year 7’s and 8’s can take part in, in Week 8.

 

How can you participate?
