Today Room 2 went to the Richmond Mall to raise awareness about Child Labour and raise money for the Free the Children Fund, by selling wallets made from juice box wallets.
They did a fantastic job talking to all the people and motivating them to make a donation or buy a wallet.
We raised over $300 and still have about 20 wallets to sell at school tomorrow. Next term we will be donating the money online.
I have been so impressed with everyones hard work, and the empathy you have shown throughout this unit, you should all be very proud of yourselves, as I am!!
Here is a short video of some photos from the mall, let me know what you thought of this experience.

Wow what a fantastic day!! Everyone was on time and work really hard! What a lot of money we raised, I'm sure you can make a big difference with that! Well done to all!! Miss B
ReplyDeleteWe raised so much money to help stop child labour. I didn't think we would raise around $100 in donations! Did you manage to sell all the rest of the wallets at school today?
