Fifteen TY students took part in the annual WWGS (World Wise Global Schools) Annual Student Conference. This conference was online this year. There were contributions from people from different agencies working for justice and equality, sharing their experience and challenges of being members of ethnic minorities in Ireland. Two students, Molly and Isabel, pictured, were interviewed by Valery Molay (a former UN Youth Delegate for Ireland) about the ‘Our School One World’ presentation. The girls represented the TY GCE class, and also spoke about the song ‘We Are One’ , and the process that led to creating it.. This was part of the WWGS Annual Student Conference, which is a national event. The theme of the day was: Our Journey Towards Racial Justice.

This activity was part of the school’s commitment to cross curricular global citizenship education, supported by World Wise Global Schools.
