On Friday 25th September, School Strike 4 Climate are hosting hundreds of activities around Australia for the ‘Fund Our Future Not Gas’ day of action. DCAN has joined with local school students to arrange four local events. We would love you to join us and also invite along any young people in your life. 

Join us for a webinar with local school kids - 25 September 10.30am

Join us and local School Strikers in an online webinar to find out how we can support them in their fight for a better future. With a Federal Government determined to invest in a gas fueled recovery, there has never been a more important time for us to campaign for a recovery based on renewables. We will also hear from Jeff Nottle, President of the Phillip Island Conservation Society about the proposed mega gas project in Westernport Bay and the community campaign to stop it.  RSVP here to receive the zoom link. 

School Strikers meeting with Ged Kearney - 25th September 11.30am 

Local School Strikers are inviting young people to join them in an online meeting with Federal MP Ged Kearney. If you know a young person living in the Cooper electorate who would like to share their views on the climate emergency with Ged please email Katia.

Make your words count through powerful letter writing  - 2nd October 10.30am

Please join us and special guest, Fiona Ivits, to learn the tricks of the trade in getting the attention of our politicians and leaders through powerful letter writing.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to pick up some red hot tips from an expert! RSVP here to receive the zoom link.

Take a selfie!

Next time you take your daily exercise, why not walk by your local school with a handmade sign in tow. (Don't forget your mask) Send a photo to us at [email protected] and with your permission we will post it on the DCAN Facebook page, send it to local politicians and the School Strike 4 Climate team for the global day of action on the 25th September.
