This week we are working with another organisation that you may have heard of. It is ‘Send My Friend to School‘.

As the name suggests they help children in the UK speak up on behalf of the 67 million children who do not go to school.

The prompt this week is to answer this question:

….Why do you think school is important? ….

 

It can be difficult to imagine something that you have never experienced. Here is a brief description of one little girl’s experience

Ummi is 12 and lives in Kabiji, Nigeria. Her father is a trader and does not earn enough money to buy the books, uniform or shoes Ummi needs to go to school. Instead Ummi sells snacks at a local market. Ummi says “My friends got to Kabiji Primary School. When I see them going, I wish I could go too.”

The people at ‘Send My Friend to School’ have very kindly offered some T-shirts as prizes to the best 5 entries. Let’s make sure they see your very best work!!

Do pop over to their website. There you will see all the information about the events they hold. you will also see details of their Ambassadors. We are going to be following their progress after the holidays.

If you are not sure what this challenge is about, please read ‘How to enter the challenges’ The link will stay open until 9pm on 3rd July
