Our Year 5 children visited the Vietnam Waste Solutions Facility in the Binh Chanh district of the city.

Linked to their IPC work on sustainability, the children learnt about what happens to the rubbish once it leaves their homes. They found out about the effects that modern companies are having on the city due to the increased amount of litter created, and heard about the plans for the future.

The waste facility was established to develop and operate solid waste management and treatment facilities, including a landfill, recycling and composting facilities, water treatment facilities and waste collection services. The children had a great time and asked lots of interesting questions. Well done Year 5! To find out more about the centre, visit www.vnwaste.com.

Being aware and being human: sharing stories

BIS-Aware season on the Secondary campus was an opportunity to explore the breadth and depth of who ‘We Are’ as individuals and communities, it provided a platform to explore the Protected Characteristics, the hidden and lesser known stories that celebrate our strength and diversity. The purpose of this inaugural event was to promote Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging (EDIB) to nurture a supportive community that encourages a sense of social responsibility and inclusion. This brings together both worldwide movements such as Black History Month and Women's History Month but also our own ‘in-house’ awareness event from the Identity Alliance group. This year our theme was ‘Sharing Stories’.
