Students in the Southern Highlands are going on strike from school on March 15 to call on our politicians to take urgent action on climate change and to stop coal mining in their area, and in all of Australia. Tens of thousands of Australian school students from hundreds of schools in dozens of cities and towns will join students from around the world to strike from school on March 15, demanding urgent political action on climate change and the Adani coal mine. School students will joined by adults who we have invited to walk out for the day in solidarity with us.

Last November, 15,000 Australian school students walked out of school, prompting ire from PM Scott Morrison.
