Unit 5. Community Action Project

 

On June 15th, 2018 students were given their GLOBAL SCHOLARS AWARDS by the School Principal, Mrs. Ariadna Daura, and by the Sant Boi Town Hall Education Councillor, Miss Alba Martínez.

It was a very nice ceremony in recognition of the students’ hard work this year. Our students presented all the projects they have done during the course.

Our students have learnt a lot of about Nutrition and the Impact of Food Wate in our society and in unit 5 created a Community Action Project to change an aspect of their Community. They did really well. Congratulations!!!!!

Students in Madrid, Spain, created a website to share their Community Action Project. Their goal was to conserve water and electricity at their school. They raised awareness by creating posters and giving presentations to students in other classes. The big accomplishment of their project was to have the lights in their playground replaced with energy-efficient light bulbs! Click on the picture to explore their website!
