High school students from Taupō will tomorrow add their voices to the call for action on climate change when they join the global School Strike 4 Climate.
Interested students from Tauhara College and Taupō-nui-a-Tia College are expected to gather on the Colonel Roberts Reserve on the Taupō lakefront at 2pm.
They will join thousands of other New Zealand school students from more than 20 towns around the country who also plan to go "on strike" tomorrow to support a worldwide day of action over global warming.
The global strike is expected to bring students on to the streets across Europe, the United States, Australia and other countries.
In Taupō the strike is being organised by Arabella Marshall, 16, of Tauhara College along with Taupō-nui-a-Tia College students Raureti Ormond, Caitlin Head, Siaosi Tiueti and Manaia Judd.
