MSB students impress UNICEF

Mount St Benedict College currently have a successful team of girls who have qualified for the International Future Problem Solving Championships to be held in the USA in June. They are part of the Community Problem Solving Team and the focus of their project 'Mind Your Language' has been to educate the College and wider community about the language used by politicians and the media to describe, and often demonise, asylum seekers.

UNICEF is impressed by their work and have been at the College filming the girls about their project. The film will be featured on the UNICEF website as a model of advocacy but also as an example of getting this important issue on the national agenda with students.
