Room 2 were inspired by the "With One Loaf" project and this raised the word poverty. We had a class discussion about poverty and what it means and who it affects.
The class decided we could sell our art and give the money to the people who may struggle over Christmas because of going through a hard time. Our class talked about what it would feel like to be a kid on Christmas morning and not have anything new or flash to open.
We looked at charities and decided to give to the City Mission and become City Mission Angels.
We made Christmas decorations and then made invitation and invited our families to a pre- Fia Fia Day sale.
We had a friends and family sale and lots of family visited our classroom and generously bought our decorations.
We made $363.50 for the City Mission.
How did we feel about helping people?
Jed - It makes me feel like I want to help the whole world."
I think that sums it up. Room 2 angels - you are amazing!
