Congratulations to the Decker Colony School students in Mr. Elias Wipf's ELA class for winning the Next Vista for Learning Service via Video contest! Their wining video, Cookies for Tanzania, tells the story of how their school has been supporting projects in Tanzania through their fundraising efforts over the past few years. This contest was created to encourage young people to "tell stories of people serving their communities" through video creation.
The Cookies for Tanzania fundraiser sales were put on hold this year due to COVID, but this group of students found a way to continue contributing to the cause by raising awareness with their video. Four students collaboratively planned and created the video, including sourcing images, writing a script and narrating the video to tell their story. They also worked with students, parents and community members to obtain the permissions required for people appearing in the video. The resulting video is a great showcase for this service learning project -- be sure to watch it below!
