In its inaugural year, students addressed topics such as period poverty, access to clean water, indoor air pollution, and the mental health impacts of online learning. Culminating in a demonstration of their progress and visible to the entire community, it was clear that, in the words of Ivy in Grade 7, 'a small change makes a big impact'.
