EDI Student Leadership

The EDI Student Committee at Morven started back in August of 2020, while the EDI Ambassadors at the Wentworth campus was piloted in 2022. Our goal then, as it remains now, is to pursue and create sustainable change within our school as it pertains to knowledge, engagement, and action toward equity, diversity and inclusion. In order for diversity to be embraced at Collingwood, it’s imperative that we continue to widen our scope of both acknowledgement and celebration for the variety of cultures and beliefs within the community, while still maintaining the willingness to engage in uncomfortable conversations when the time is right. Ultimately seeking to explore and understand how our evolving global and local climates impact our sense of belonging. 

We’re committed to learning alongside our peers, understanding that while individuals may engage at their own pace, the community must grow in unison. With this belief, our EDI committee remains passionate about creating political and structural impact within our school by creating change through both school policy and school culture. Through our initiatives, be they practices, programs, events, or proposals, the hope is that each member of our community knows they are welcome and feels they belong. 

Since 2020, we have grown and are proud of the journey we are on - our EDI timeline (link to come) shows the initiatives that continue to resonate with the community.
