Reflection
Our retreat was a success, and that is when we all realized how great our impact was going to be. We got a lot done during the retreat. Once we received the grant, we all immediately bought all the materials necessary to get our projects going. We got all the permission we needed for certain events, and we were finally able to get things going. At our school, the Wellness Room has been used by at least 100 students. The majority of the school has begun composting their food, and we handed out many brochures to our peers related to healthy eating. We were able to hold Throwback Thursdays to promote physical exercise and movement. All the events we held throughout the year impacted hundreds of students in learning that health is not just limited to exercise and healthy eating. As a group, we could have been more organized with time and dates. We could have also done a better job at taking down quantitative and qualitative forms of our project. However, we are all positive that next year our team will be much more experienced, improved, and even more impactful!
