Members of our student Environment Committee made their voices heard last week at the annual Speaking 4 the Planet Competition hosted by MLC School.

A special congratulations to Eva Villarroel for her thoughtful and powerfully delivered speech, and to Kira Sprotte and Jenny Nguyen, who were awarded places for their respective entries in the Writing and Recycled Art categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
