Getting real about relationships

Humans are tuned for relationships. Relationships are everything. In classrooms, positive relationships facilitate learning and collaboration. Healthy relationships with each other, the planet, other species, things, institutions, choices and change are vital for a sustainable society. Sustainability, in its full sense – personal, social and environmental­ ­– is about relationships. How we relate to others in the classroom and across the school influences how we live in community and with the earth.
