Service as action is a vital part of the MYP Programme at our school and it is a mandatory IB requirement for each student to complete. It starts in the classroom and extends beyond it, requiring them to take an active part in local and global communities.

The emphasis is on:
> Developing community awareness and concern
> Engaging with local/n a t i o n a l / g l o b a l
communities
> Learning to balance social, academic, and recreational avenues in life whilst maintaining a healthy lifestyle
> Becoming independent
> Student initiated inquiry and experiences

M Y P S E R V I C E PROJECT 2020

At the moment the MYP students are all working towards promoting some of the global goals for sustainable development. They are researching and developing presentations about these global goals and organisations that are working towards these goals.

Their research projects will then be available to the school community so that you too can learn more about what is being done and how we all can help to reach these global goals.

As global citizens in the MYP this is invaluable work that they are doing and as a community we need to show our support and follow their lead on making the world a better place for all and to sustain our beautiful world for future generations.
