I love this.Well done! I live near two schools in Ryde and constantly pick up rubbish left on the nature strip/footpath.Plastic drinks bottles, takeway food packaging and this moring a sport drink bottle in my front yard, again😒. I pick up most of it, but just wonder why? Why when everyone surely is aware that it will all end up iin stormwater drains, then the harbour and ocean.Maybe request a bin from the council, to help the depositers?🤷‍♀️

The jobs of the 21st century will be sprung from the STEM subjects being taught in the schools of today.

All our students should have the opportunity to engage with these wonderful subjects. Right now, for a number of reasons, the proportion of girls doing these subjects, and women employed in STEM fields, it at the low end of the spectrum.

If you are a school, a girl who attends school, or parents of a girl still in school; and you, or they, have an interest in STEM; the GiST website www.thegist.edu.au/ may of interest to you.

Please engage with it for further information on STEM and how girls can engage effectively with it.
