Lower School Cop 26 Conference

How to Change Climate Change - Lower School COP 26 Conference

On Friday December 3rd, the Lower School learnt about climate change and the COP 26 conference which was taking place in Glasgow. The activities were all led by our Sixth Form Sustainability Committee. First, our Upper 6 students gave a fantastic speech about the environment, the importance of the conference and what actions we can take to help save our planet. Next came the scavenger hunt where teams had to looking for clues about environmental problems. We all had lots of fun together! Then we were told to split into groups and design a whole outfit using waste materials from the dining centre such as carboard and containers. We worked in teams to design our outfits, and the person who wore the outfit walked down the hall modelling their wonderful reusable costume. Everyone looked amazing and at the end, a winner was chosen. L4P won for our year group – they used a bag for their top, pieces of paper for their skirt and a flower necklace made of colourful paper and string! It was a really fun and exciting day, and we all learned a lot about how to improve our environment! Carolina and Anna, Lower 4
