Taroona High's 3 smart goals are:

1. To have Grade 7 students educate the rest of the school community, organising their own lessons and presenting material on palm oil production in school assemblies.

2. To have students set up Facebook pages for Tazz d'Eville (a Tasmanian Devil) and Orrie Anotan (an orangutan) to raise awareness of the orangutans' plight - Tazz and Orrie are mates through their joint statuses as endangered species.

3. To set up a paypal account to collect funds from "Help my Mate Orrie" fundraising campaign.

Here are Waggrakine Primary's SMART goals.

1. By the end of Week 3, each class will come up with one awareness raising campaign so that the message about palm oil and orangutans is spread throughout the Geraldton community.

2. By June 2011 we will raise $1000 so that we can contribute to SHOUT fundraising to save the orangutans.

…DeforestACTION SMART goals for the DMSC…

1. Fundraising
Over the coming month, students aim to arrange 2 separate fundraisers in our school community, a milkshake day and selling raffle tickets, to raise money for saving the orang-utans and buying back land to protect rainforests.


2. Social networking
Students will create a facebook group to demonstrate against palm oil production and raise awareness of the importance of labelling products, so that consumers can make informed decisions.A link to this page will be uploaded on our DMSC blog.

3. Public awareness campaign
Students will raise awareness in the school, local and broader community by running a poster campaign at school, creating articles for the local newspaper and school newsletter and writing letters to politicians about deforestation and the damage it is doing to our environment.
