Three PLSD students from Morrin School and Delia School are collaborating on Youth= Community Growth as their Inclusivity Project.
Ashley McNaughton and McKenzee Olsen of Morrin School and Belle Stanger of Delia School have partnered on their entry into the school division’s Inclusivity Project, and on Tuesday, November 26 presented to Morrin School. Their focus was on youth involvement in the community, focusing on volunteerism and promoting smaller communities.
“The presentation went pretty well,” McNaughton tells the Mail. “Everyone really enjoyed the presenters and we got lots of feedback from the students.”
The presentation included appearances by Ms. Rodeo Canada Alicia Erickson and country singer Blake Reid who performed.
“The most impactful part was probably Blake Reid. He is a country singer/ songwriter and his message was very inspiring to help out within your community,” said McNaughton.
The Inclusivity Project is an annual program in PLSD. This year’s project encourages students to “Make an Impact” and expand their activism to include a wider variety of issues, such as social, environmental, inclusion or civic issues.
This year’s prize is a trip to Roatan to do volunteer work with the Charmont Bilingual Academy and Roatan Because We Care.
