National Dissemination event (Leeds DEC)

26th-27th June 23 National event at Leeds Climate Hub

21 teachers and teacher trainers from across the country attended this national multiplier event. The climate curriculum framework, toolkit and guide were shared with the attendees. There was a really positive response. Many people said how impressed they were with the materials and that it both unsurprising - and extremely positive in terms of impact and reach - that the National History Museum wants to adopt them. There was quite a lot of excitement about this.

Climatary poetry event (Our Lady Queen of the Apostles)

50 teachers, educators, poets, local councillors and parents attended the event in Aras Chronain, the local intercultural centre. In addition to the Intellectual Outputs of CC4CA being shared, young poets moved the audience with their poetry as they called for action and asked others to help make the Earth cleaner!

From there, Fighting Words was invited to the school to work with 2nd, 4th and 5th class groups to discuss the current effects of climate change and the possibility of how Earth can be in the future. It was attended by more than fifty people and the children recited their poetry. It was very uplifting and moving and a lovely completion of our CC4CA.

“The event was excellent. The venue was lovely and good to see families present with their children. Good also to see the school staff together supporting the event. There was evidence of a lot of hard work and the children reading their poems so enthusiastically certainly heightened all adults awareness of our need to work for climate justice.” participant
