Bryan fu
Father michael mcgivney catholic academy I want to give students at my school the opportunity to learn about urban architecture and the whole design and creation process. I wish to give those who want to make a difference in our community the opportunity to do so! I like to sleep. Oh and eat, but mainly play video games. |
carson eric bautista
Father michael mcgivney catholic academy I want to practice the various skills required to flourish as a youth city builder, enabling others around the school community the ability to solve communal dilemmas, so that everyone is empowered in the daily facets of their life. I love reading novels, jamming to music, practicing chess, having fun with friends, traveling to different countries, and being myself no matter what. |

university of toronto schools While our school is being renovated, students have been relocated to a small building that lacks the homeliness and comfort of the old building. With 1UP, I hope to somewhat restore the integrity of the old UTS building using design and public space in our temporary home. I enjoy painting, walking my dog, and travelling. |

EARL HAIG SECONDARY SCHOOL Earl Haig is a certified eco-school. With nearly 3000 students, we do not have a composting service and are not very aware of our overall footprint. You may imagine how much food waste is produced daily at our school, so I will develop composting options and pickup arrangements. I will also look to develop opportunities to spread information and awareness about our ecological impact as a school community, including our carbon footprint. Our use of paper may benefit from a sourcing change (sustainable, responsible sources) as well! I love raising awareness, acting and taking action, and being present every moment. |

william lyon mackenzie collegiate institute This year through 1UP, I hope to transform my school’s complaints and calls for change in our outdoor space into real planning and action. In my downtime, I like to involve myself in things that interest me. Whether they be the stock market, machine learning, or in this case, urban planning. |

harold M. brathwaite Secondary school Harold M. Brathwaite is a school which offers multiple programs for students to take apart, including the IB Program, SHSM Law, and SHSM Business. Although this provides the students of HB with multiple sources to activate their learning, the school lacks an effective outlet where they can successfully relieve their stress. Through the 1UP chapter, I plan to create a Wellness Center in the school where students can sign up to relax and destress during hectic occasions, providing the ultimate solution to this problem. I love music, photography, and exploring the depths of my abilities to better my community. |
