“Students at St. Malachy’s are taking action for our rivers and coasts. Cleanups with former AP Nature students inspire current & future AP Nature Students. Today we cleaned Wolastoq, a brook & sidewalks @Cgeducation_ #MutiraoCOP30 #Decarbonize #COP30 #APNature #ClimateAction”

James, a current STM AP Nature student says “My sister and I decided to go to a nearby brooke beside our house and fill a garbage bag of trash for the cleanup” & many students noticed plastic as major problem.

Preparing for International Day of Social Justice, we celebrate local, national & international social justice advocates (SDG 10 Reducing Inequalities). We sample African cuisine learning new ingredients & recipes, hear Nigerian poets & see Hidden History! @cgeducation @LSF_LST

Saints begin land-based learning with Elders Charlie and Rhonda hearing about the importance of sweet grass & braiding it together. Thankful to ASDS for making this important learning opportunity happen & for supporting our Truth & Reconciliation journey!

#APNatureEd Seminar students prove that youth care and have deep curiosity about important local issues. After exploring uptown, Saints wonder about harbour pollution, green spaces & transportation, sustainable housing.. Looking forward to seeing what solutions they investigate!
