The week started with a video from MP for Arundel and South Downs Andrew Griffith, who shared a video message with the children, inspiring them to learn more about sustainability
Each class then had the opportunity to research, question and debate their key issue as a class, with some classes creating their own banners and slogans to help promote sustainability.

One class even sent their letters to the local council and they are going to debate their recycling topic in a council meeting, in January.
All of the children created persuasive videos and pieces of writing, arguing why their topic was the most important. These can be viewed on the school YouTube channel.
