Green Stone Mingle – Come and Support our Grade 12 Students

As our graduates enter their final semester we come together as a community to support the preparation for their Green Stone presentations in June.

A requirement for every Green School graduate is a capstone project, known as Green Stone. Green Stone is a year-long inquiry and process where students demonstrate a mastery of core skills and Green School skills. This can be a passion project, an area of interest, or a solution to a real-world problem. The Green Stone experience culminates in a 13-minute TED-style talk the week before graduation. It is a life-changing experience and prepares every student for their next adventure and arguably for the rest of their life. Green Stone is a process and an experience that not only develops skills but also provides a platform to demonstrate mastery of those skills.

Where do I need help?: Refining my idea, making it more specific. Finding an expert quilt maker who I can learn from.
