Dublin7ET students present projects
The sixth class students from the Dublin school in the partnership have mostly completed their work on CEPNET projects. These have ranged from detailed analysis of solar power, homelessness, fundraising projects, as well as this rap about climate change.
In total, some 17 projects were presented to a group of almost 100 children and teachers from the school community. A lot of preparation had gone into these presentations. More information can be found in the student project section.
The students will continue to share their results with peers and local organisations. One group examined the journey of their football jerseys and discovered that some were more sustainable in terms of their global footprint. They will share these findings with their clubs.
There was some disappointment from others in the slow response from local and national politicians. One group had been promised a response to their questions about Cop-26 and environmental targets from the Minister for Environment. To date, the children have not heard back.
