What are the three main topics we have identified? Food security
Food security is the access to HEALTHY FOOD and OPTIMAL NUTRITION for all.Solid waste
Solid waste is material such as household garbage, food waste and yard waste.Water availability
Water availbility is the capacity of a water source to sustain additional water demands.
Why have we identified these topics as our primary focus?
Many learners tend to litter our school terrain, especially during interval, contributing to solid waste.
The tuck shop sells unhealthy food of which the packaging is not environmentally friendly, nor is the food nutritious.
