Baroness Floella Benjamin was a tremendous hit with students from four SSLP schools when she visited Dulwich College on Tuesday this week for a live Thinking About. Floella told us about her early childhood in Trinidad and the adjustments she had to make when her family emigrated to the “Motherland”, England. She left us with the message to keep smiling and to be leaders of positive change.
On Wednesday our SSLP Links teachers met online to hear from Justin Dillon, the President of the National Association of Environmental Education (NAEE). He shared with us their Manifesto and other sources of good practice. Our Links also discussed the Student Voice: Sustainability project and ideas for the November Conference.
Later today we are expecting 9 staff members from SSLP schools to gather at City Heights for specific training on how to support students Bring About Change, especially relating to community action projects.
