Live Streaming – COP27
Live Streaming - COP27 This morning Nicky Samut, Adam Vassallo, Adam Tabone, Jade Psaila Dufoo and Sophie Knobel participated enthusiastically during the live streaming session with Dr Karl Vella who is currently attending the COP27 conference in Egypt. Each student framed three excellent questions but the 30 minute session only allowed us to air a question each. Dr Vella enjoyed answering the very intelligent and searching questions on sustainability and our personal and collective responsibilities towards our planet’s future. Dr Karl Vella is consultant to Chiswick House School and St Martin’s College on sustainability. Well done students! Thank you Ms Angela for facilitating this session fabulously and supporting Ms Sabina on her plans ahead. Mr David’s technical support was flawless.
