Co-ordinator Hugh Gibbons says... Being in on the World School Club might appeal to schools anywhere in the world who'd like to add their own picture to the World School Wall in Bracknell. But you keep it on show in your school! It's an off-the-wall idea. Most art galleries are in one place and filled with pictures done by professional artists who've chosen their own subject. With the Club, the world gets a gallery that's scattered far and wide, has only one picture per place, and the subject's chosen and brought into being by pupils and parents - so all can have a hand as mini-artists. |

HERE’S HOW - ANYTIME DURING 2016 |
||
1. Choose one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals seen on the right - and in detail at the United Nations website
They're also listed further down this page.
2. Create your own SDG collage – ideally from small things brought in from family homes eg spoons, pencils, buttons, photos, Fairtrade labels, or whatever (see below).
NB That's ideally. But if you think it would be better to go another route - maybe a group of students doing things on behalf of everybody - that's OK. Just try to get everyone involved once it's done, and keep them informed.
Your picture can be any size that suits, and of any material (unless you're going to put it outdoors, in which case weatherproof paints etc...)
The SDG pictures on the Wall in Bracknell are on plywood and 600mm wide by 1200mm deep. But they're meant to be viewed from about 10 metres away. So yours might be smaller. Even one the size of a postage stamp counts!
3. Find a suitable place and exhibit your SDG picture permanently for all to admire and enjoy - perhaps in a special assembly of dedication. And maybe use it as an extra SMSC/PSHE/Citizenship resource. If anyone wants to create one of their own for home or a club or community, they'll be very welcome to do so - and they be counted as Club members. Register for the Club by e-mailMembership is free, and there are no strings attached
The basic information
needed is your school name, type and location;
an approximate count of how many people were
involved in the making of the picture; and your
website URL. Include a photo of
your finished SDG picture - and any as you go
along. If you've any good stories or
comments or local media coverage to share,
they'll be welcome too. Your details will go
on the on-line catalogue list. You'll get
a Club certificate to print out and show around.
And there'll be an occasional update on anything
significant. And after that...
Share your good news story far and wide maybe via social networks - with families, former pupils, wellwishers, local press and radio, nearby churches and other community groups. They really will like to hear about it - and give you a pat on the back and thanks for taking part. |

WHAT YOU MIGHT USE FROM AROUND HOMES... |
||
To fix these in
place: nails, screws, glue, cable staples/em> IF YOU’RE THINKING OF
A PICTURE TO BE ON PUBLIC SHOW OUTDOORS... Put it on primed
plywood or the like Use acrylic or other
weatherproof paints

These Wall pictures by primary schools put spoons and plastic money bags to use in depicting SDGs. The panel in the middle has solar collectors powering fairy lights.
