Earlier this year, on the 17th of February, I attended the Anglicare Ambassadors program launch at Christchurch Grammar School. Before applying last year, I already had an idea of the kinds of campaigns and projects we would be doing, however at the program launch we were able to see what other schools were implementing and were also informed of the importance of our work as Anglicare Ambassadors. There were many interesting projects and events that were mentioned, such as a school run op-shop, and also the sleep out.

As the basis of our “Save the human” math project, where we were asked to explore topics of our own choosing in relevance to sustainability and analyse them mathematically, we decided to investigate COVID-19. The aim for our project was to find the most sustainable and effective solution to COVID-19, however, in addition to that, we also researched unrealistic solutions to COVID-19 and misinformation in relation to COVID-19. We used a range of graphs, case studies and statements presented on a beautiful.ai slideshow, and came to the conclusion that by putting multiple solutions together (masks mandates, lockdown, travel restrictions…), we would get the most effective solution to COVID-19. We represented our ideology through The Swiss Cheese Model, where the different solutions are shown as slices of cheese, that although have flaws, when combined, the flaws of certain strategies are covered by the strengths of others. This minimises the impact of COVID-19.
