Project Utopia

Last week saw the commencement of Project Utopia which runs throughout Term 3.

 

Each week, our Year 7 students work during InnovatED, in teams, to develop liveable cities that adhere to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The teams receive visitors each week that bring real world experience and questions, so their projects iteratively improve, whilst also benefiting from an invaluable and rich learning experience in the process.

 

 

Last week we welcomed: 

 

Liza Harvey MLA: Leader of the Opposition; Shadow Minister for Public Sector Management; State Development; Jobs and Trade; Federal-State Relations; Citizenship & Multicultural Affairs.

Anthony Spagnolo - Liberal for Riverton

Shayanna Crouch: RegenWA Project Manager at Perth NRM

Jason Pitman: Swan-Canning River Recovery Manager and Biodiversity Coordinator at Perth NRM

Chantelle Gilbert (Old Saint, Class of 2013): Senior Planning Officer at City of Belmont, WA

 

This Friday we look forward to welcoming:

 

Federal Finance Minister Mathias Cormann

Mayor Brad Pettitt- Mayor, City of Fremantle; Greens Candidate for the South Metropolitan Region

Paul Garbett, Director of Strategic Planning and Projects - City of Fremantle

Dr Kate Brooks, Beyond Boundaries Advisory Group member and Director of Stakeholder Engagement for Western Australia with MTPConnect.

Anthony Spagnolo - Liberal Candidate for Riverton
