We talked at length about what the solution to ongoing drought could be. A big question with no single answer. Our teacher directed us to a site called Climate Wise Agriculture. This site has been developed by Young Farming Champion Anika Molesworth. What a champion she is! This site extended our thinking around Climate Change, the drought and the complex issues that surrounded it.
We decided it takes COURAGE to be a farmer. It takes COURAGE to stand up against climate change. It takes COURAGE to bring about change in a nation. At Youth Off The Streets courage is a big part of what we are about. As mentioned in previous blogs, the circle of courage is the model we use as a school and organisation. It takes courage for us to change our lives. It takes courage for us to come to school everyday. It takes courage for us to chose education. So we have taken the letters of courage and turned them into our solution. Chelsea took the class brainstorm and turned it into the following. This will become a significant part of our cow.
