OASES Assembly and Workshop

February 3, 2026 by lowens

Today, we welcomed Tori from OASES into school to lead a whole‑school assembly all about climate change. She helped us learn what climate change means, how it affects our world and why it’s important to take care of our planet. We discovered simple things we can all do—like saving energy, recycling and looking after nature—to help make a big difference for the future.

Then, Tori worked with our Eco Group within school to use lux meters to begin exploring how light works. They used the devices to measure how bright different places in school were, from sunny spots by the windows to darker corners of the classroom. The children enjoyed comparing the numbers and discovering which areas had the most and least light and deciding if we need to use lights throughout the day.

UNCRC Article 29 – education should foster respect for the natural environment.
