About seventy pupils in three classes - plus three teachers.
The school was holding an Environmental Week and saw this as a way to involve the pupils in an imaginative way with a concrete outcome.
"I picked a Harry Potter picture because I've read all the books!"
"I've done my own drawing on mine - and put my name on."
"I'm taking mine for my mum!"
The advantage of a hands-on approach to climate change awareness-raising has been underlined by much research. Digital Voice in partnership with Groundwork did detailed research work in the North East which looked at the concerns and suspicions which some peoeple have. It was shown that this practical work was far more successful in showing that we can take action easily, and that it can be fun as well as saving money - and saving the planet!
The Save the World activities were developed drawing on these findings.
The school held an Assembly on climate change, and the young people were able to take their gift bags home!
West Jesmond School, Newcastle.
Young people, adults and older people all get a lot out of hands-on work like this. Thousands have taken part in festivals, schools and in groups and organisations. It has been shown to leave people more positive and motivated about taking action themselves on climate change.
