At today’s parent forum Todd Schumacher led a conversation about our relationship with nature and environment by thinking about our children’s connection to nature.
He explored the importance of building on our children’s innate appreciation of nature. Todd shared some of the challenges of developing interest in climate action including the issue of anxiety that sometimes comes from the media.
Todd shared how one way we can address this anxiety is by taking action and being part of the solution which is the focus of our climate summit on April 20th. The day will include a range of activities including assemblies, workshops, clean up, tree planting and engaging with appreciation of our campus environment.
To conclude the session Todd shared the schools Green goals as well as some suggestions for how you as a family can apply the same goals to your home and lifestyle decisions, to download a copy:
