The club I chose to attend was the Environmental Club. The main goal of the club is to help the environment by donating their time and effort towards good causes, and to try and raise awareness for a lot of the issues that people might not know so much about.
At the meeting I attended, the organizers talked about what the Environmental Club does, and went into brief detail about some of the projects they run here at Fraser Heights.
I decided to attend this club because I thought it sounded interesting, and I wanted to join a club of some sort, so this seemed to be a good place to start. The club meets on Mondays in room 211, though activities may take place at lunch or after school.
There are quite a few benefits of joining this club. For starters, it’s an excellent chance to earn volunteer hours, especially since you need a certain number of hours in order to graduate. Might as well get started, right? It’s also a lot of fun! It’s a great place to get to know people, and you’re also helping out your community and environment.
However if you do sign up for a project, you are expected to show up and pull your own weight just like everyone else. These projects usually take place after school, and include activities such as removing invasive species in order to let the native plants flourish, picking up garbage (it’s a lot more fun than it sounds) or even creating posters and just helping out in the community.
But they’re not limited to just after school or extracurricular activities... Some of their projects may just be as simple as not using plastic or Styrofoam containers, and using reusable ones instead. This is a great club for all who care about the environment, or even those who just think that picking up garbage around the school grounds sounds like a fun thing to do with their friends!
this is an amazing post! its very detailed, maybe next time you could explain things that you would maybe like to do in the club, but it is very interesting and i enjoyed reading it
ReplyDeleteLaura,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your post. It was interesting and informative. You wrote plenty of information about the Environmental Club, what it’s about, where it is, and the kinds of work that is done in the club. I have learned much from your post. If there was even a single thing that you could have done better, it would be explaining what the atmosphere of the club is like, and perhaps how the people in the club are towards newcomers. Are they friendly, welcoming, or anything along those lines? Overall, your grammar in the post was excellent, and you gave others a great glimpse into what the environmental club is like. You described what the Environmental Club was like very well, and in the future your writing skills will do you good.
