About Active Citizenship Society
The Active Citizenship club began in September 2007 as a result of a student initiative. It initially brought together pupils from year 4-7 from a diverse range of backgrounds to discuss and debate issues of concern in a friendly, safe, environment and to develop citizenship skills and action. As a result of the success of this club there will be another Active Citizenship Society for years 1-3 beginning from September 2009.
We believe that nowadays passiveness and apathy are common characteristics of many students. This was the basic motive that encouraged students to request the formation of such a club. The idea of this club is to try and make students become more aware of social issues and become actively involved on improving society. An important aim is to help students acquire the skills and the competencies to become active democratic citizens. Another aim of this group is to bring students closer by organising different activities such as parties, writing articles to publish in school and screening of films and documentaries. A major aim is to learn how to debate and to respect different views on a variety of issues and to have fun between students in an alternative environment. Last but not least, the society aims to combat racism, extreme nationalism, and discriminatory attitudes amongst the school and elsewhere.
Some of the topics that are of interest include: current affairs, alternate music, commercialization of sports, different cultures, environment, school issues, racism, nationalism, immigration, anti-war organisations, social problems, religion and military issues, and of course, school uniform.
The Society publishes its own Magazine called “The Active Citizenship Society”.
Until today the society has published 4 issues of the magazine where students voiced their views on various current affairs issues and school issues. The magazine was sold to students and teachers within the school.
In order to achieve better communication between the students and to promote the dialog within the school community, the Society has created this blog, where you can find amongst others, information about the activities of the Society, film and book suggestions and the issues of the “Active Citizenship Society” magazine.
Meetings: every Thursday, Room SB16, at 2.00 -3.15.
Join us to combat passiveness!!!
Come along and bring your ideas!!!
