Activity:
Write down one possible solution to address hunger. Volunteers to share their ideas.

Divide the students into 6 groups. Each group will create a one-minute speech to share with the class:

Topics :

1. Climate Change

2. Poverty

3. Education

4. Global Health

5. Peace and Security

1. Think: What is the biggest global challenge today?

2. Pair: Discuss with your partner for 1-2 minutes.

3. Share: Volunteers can share their ideas with the class.

Our Objective is to raise awareness of global hunger issues and encourage critical solutions.

1. Fact 1: Nearly 828 million people around the world go to bed hungry every night.

   
   

   • What do you think are some reasons why so many people face hunger?

Braeside Focus:

What percentage of food do you throw in the food waste bin?

Well, let's explore SDG 4 and SDG 16:

SDG 4: Promotes inclusive and equitable education, ensuring all students feel safe.

SDG 16: Fosters peace and justice, emphasizing the importance of non-violence and strong community institutions.

Group 1 (SDG4): How does bullying contradict the idea of inclusivity and equality?

Group 2 (SDG 16): What can you do to promote peace and kindness in your school?

• Use the kindness cards and color them as much as you can

• Write one action you will take to promote kindness (e.g., "I will speak up if I see bullying")

You will be handed a leaf cutout and write one idea for building peace in our school (e.g., "Invite a new student to sit with me at lunch").

We will attach the leaves to the tree and display it as a reminder of our collective responsibility.

Instructions:

Read your group's scenario. In 5 minues, come up with an innovative and sustainable solution. Be prepared to share your ideas with the class!

Scenario 1: Access to Clean Water

A rural village lacks clean drinking water. The community has rivers nearby, but the water is unsafe to drink. Design a sustainable solution to provide clean water.

Scenario 2: Transport for All

A city struggles with traffic congestion and pollution. Many people cannot afford cars. How can the city improve transportation while being eco-friendly?

Scenario 3: Digital Divide

Many students in remote areas do not have access to the internet or computers, limiting their education. How can technology be used to close this gap?

Scenario 4: Sustainable Energy

A town relies entirely on fossil fuels for energy. Suggest a way to transition to clean, renewable energy without making electricity unaffordable.

Scenario 1: The Collapsing City

A rapidly growing megacity in a developing country is overcrowded, with failing infrastructure. Roads are congested, public transport is unreliable, and sewage systems are collapsing. How can the city redesign its infrastructure without displacing millions of residents or harming the environment?

Scenario 2: Energy vs. Economy

A country rich in coal and oil relies on fossil fuels for its economy, employing millions. The government wants to shift to renewable energy but risks job losses, economic collapse, and resistance from powerful industries. How can the country transition sustainably while protecting its economy and workers?

Scenario 3: The Smart City Divide

A nation invests in "Smart Cities" with 5G, AI traffic control, and digital infrastructure, but rural areas remain disconnected. Many people lack internet, and traditional jobs are disappearing due to automation. How can innovation be used to bridge the digital divide without deepening social inequalities?

Scenario 4: Post-Disaster Rebuilding

A devastating earthquake destroys critical infrastructure—roads, hospitals, and power lines—in a poor country. The government lacks funds, and foreign aid is limited. How can the country rebuild stronger, more resilient infrastructure using local resources and sustainable technology?

• Why is innovation important in solving global challenges?

• Discuss how infrastructure and industry help communities thrive.

• What can we do in our daily lives to encourage innovation and sustainability?

"Equality is giving everyone a shoe. Equity is giving everyone a shoe that fits."

What does it mean to you?

Shout out words you associate with inequality

• Understand what gender inequality means.

• Recognize how it appears in everyday life.

• Reflect on how to challenge it respectfully and constructively.

Can you categorise the words in the different genders?

Read each scenario and respond thoughtfully to the questions that follow. Think about fairness, feelings, and solutions.

1. The Art Class Decision

Two students want to lead a school mural project. The girl is told she’s more suited for the job because “boys aren't artistic enough.”

a) What gender stereotype is shown here?
b) How might this make others feel — including boys who like art?
c) What’s a fair way to choose a leader?

A boy starts crying after a tough day. Some students tell him, “Stop crying like a girl.”

a) What harmful message is in this reaction?
b) Why is it unfair to both boys and girls?
c) What would a kinder, more respectful response sound like?

• Think of: Who it helps? Why it matters?

• We'll share ideas next week

Please take a minute to reflect on these two questions:

1. Why do we go to school?

2. What is one skill you’ve learned this week that you’re proud of?

Remember,

When we celebrate our learning, we also celebrate the opportunity many don’t have.

Think for a minute... then turn to a partner and share

So, who is a curious learner?

Write:

1. One thing you want to learn this week (in school or outside).

2. One action you can take to move closer to learning it.

Remember, next week, we will review these self pledges to track your learning actions :)

Every small step you take in learning is a step toward brilliance.

Where do YOU see waste around school?

1. Form groups of 3–4

2. Choose ONE area:

   • Canteen

   • Classrooms/Printing

   • Plastics

   • Uniform & Lost Property

   • Sports Dept

   • School Events

3. Answer the Challenge Questions:

• What wasteful habit happens here?

• What simple solution could start THIS WEEK?

• How can we measure success?

1. What is one habit I have that creates waste at school?

2. What can I change TODAY to reduce it?

3. Which group idea is easiest for Braeside to start immediately—and why?

• The problem

• Their realistic solution

• Their slogan

We will be having a Plastic-Free Day on Monday, 24^th November 2025!

This means that you need to change from the traditional use of plastics and bring plastic-free snacks and lunches. Some ideas include:

• Reusable lunch boxes made of metal, glass, or BPA-free materials

• Cloth or beeswax wraps instead of cling film

• Glass or stainless-steel bottles for drinks

• Paper bags or cardboard containers for sandwiches or snacks

Focus:

1. Structured Strategy

2. Meaningful Goals

Re-reading creates and illusion of knowing.

Instead, introduce Active Recall - studying by retrieving information.

Strategies for ACTIVE RECALL:

1. Flashcards - writing the question/concept on one side and an answer to the other

   
   

2. Brain Dump - After reading a topic, close the book and write down everything you can remember

Criteria for Reflecting on One Effective Exam Strategy

1. It Truly Worked:
   You can clearly remember how this strategy improved your understanding, confidence, or exam results in at least one subject or exam.

2. It Was Practical and Repeatable:
   It was something you used more than once because it consistently helped—and it’s simple enough that a student today could realistically apply it.

3. You Can Explain It Clearly:
   You can describe what you actually did, step by step, with a specific example of when it worked.
   (And if nothing genuinely worked, it’s perfectly okay not to share.)

Avoid mentioning goals such as "improve grades"

Instead, be specific to what you want to achieve based on your 9 subjects needs e.g.

1. Complete one past paper a day

2. Score 80% in Math

3. Finish Physics flashcards revision by Friday

We aren't just "being green"; we are joining a global movement.

The Kenya Organization for Environmental Education (KOEE).

The 7 Pillars:

1. Eco-Committee: A dedicated team (staff & students) to lead the charge.

2. Environmental Audit: A honest look at our current footprint.

3. Action Plan: Setting SMART goals based on the audit.

4. Monitor & Evaluate: Tracking our progress (and celebrating it!).

5. Curriculum Links: Embedding sustainability into our lessons.

6. Inform & Involve: Engaging parents and the wider community.

7. Eco-Code: Our "Sustainable Manifesto" (songs, poems, or displays).

• Biodiversity & School Grounds (Nature & outdoors)

• Climate Change & Energy (Carbon footprint)

• Food, Health & Wellbeing (Healthy people/planet)

• Litter, Waste & Water (Resource management)

• Global Citizenship, Transport & Marine/Coast (Wider impact)

We are looking specifically at five high-impact areas:

• Transport: Reducing emissions.

• Printing: Cutting paper waste.

• Food: Reducing canteen waste.

• Electricity: Turning off when not in use.

• Water: Mindful usage.

Discuss some of the little things that we can do to improve our consumption in these areas.

The Challenge: Identify one action for school operations and one way to link it to the curriculum.

The Eco-Committee will be formed and you will soon know the members to share your views.

we’re focusing on peace-building, not debating who is right or wrong

Summary:

In early 2026, military action involving the United States and Israel against Iran began, after breakdowns in negotiation and regional tensions. 

This has led to attacks, retaliation, and global concern about broader impacts. 

Global leaders and organizations like the United Nations have urged de-escalation and diplomacy. 

In groups, please answer the questions on the next slide. The answers should be written in PSHE books

1. What factors make conflict escalate?

(e.g., fear, mistrust, communication breakdown)

2. What could leaders, communities, or individuals do to promote peace instead of violence?

Think of diplomatic talks, negotiation, compromise, humanitarian support, international mediation.

3. Which Sustainable Development Goals relate most to peace building?

For example, SDG 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions encourages peaceful societies.

Good morning! Today we’re looking at how our daily habits impact the planet and how we can do more with less.

• Refuse: Do I really need this?

• Reduce: Can I use less?

• Reuse: Can this be used again?

• Repurpose: Can I use it for something else?

• Recycle: (The last resort!)
