Planet protectors around the world:

📢 Reminder #3: Our Power Our Planet from the GSP Network

This reminder comes from Muhammad Nadeem Akhtar, a Global Schools Advocate from Pakistan.

To celebrate , students led action-oriented campaigns focused on saving water, reducing waste, and protecting the environment. Through awareness activities, community outreach, and creative advocacy, they turned classroom knowledge into action.

The initiative also connected students with partner schools in the UK, Türkiye, and Indonesia, fostering global citizenship and a shared commitment to sustainability.🌍

Yesterday, I attended a National Reconciliation Week Breakfast Watch Party with a small, but dedicated and enthusiastic group at the One World Centre. The breakfast was streamed live from Optus Stadium with a number of speakers, videos, and interviews. The highlight was the impassioned Keynote Address by Whadjuk Noongar journalist and newsreader Narelda Jacobs. You can watch the broadcast on demand on SBS here https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/tv-program/reconciliation-wa-breakfast-2026/2499055683684
Narelda's speech begins at the 59-minute mark. You will need to create an SBS on Demand account (it's free) or sign in to your existing account. It's also worth watching the Reconciliation Choir performing Midnight Oil's 'Beds are Burning' at the 1 hour 36 minute mark. Members of the public can join this choir every year (if you're quick enough). I might even consider it next year! Let me know if you'd like to join me. 🎶
