Year 5 taking action




Yesterday we went to Buckingham Place to protest for the environment because we were learning about that for our unit of inquiry: Sharing the Planet. We handed out fliers that we made at school. When we were there we started giving out fliers to people. Some people took the time to read them, but some didn't even bother.

That's the thing we should keep in mind next time we do something like this. When we were there our classmate, Idan, was giving out fliers and explaining to people about whats happening to our environment. There was an old man about 74 years old. He was talking to him saying that we're using too much energy, there's no hope and it's too late to save the earth. Idan was really freaked out and all you know.

Then everyone was going near the old man to listen to what he was saying. While that was happening, the others were still giving out fliers. We also took a class photo. After we gave out the fliers and when we were all REALLY exhausted, we took a short break. There we ate our snacks and we saw the changing of the guards. We also saw a really long line or queue outside the palace. Miss Anna said that when the flag is up on the palace the QUEEN was there! Cool! After the break ended we got in the school bus and set off.
More soon,
Year 5 (Azzam and Idan)
