Black History Month

To celebrate Black History Month, we have been learning about Wangari Maathai and why she is such an important person in history. We enjoyed hearing about her life and her work in worship led by the diocese and in a variety of stories. We completed book reviews to let other people know what the stories were about and how Wangari worked hard to bring the green back to Kenya. Wangari overcame any adversity she faced to encourage people to plant millions of trees and was the first black woman to be awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for her contribution to the world. We will continue to use Wangari Maathai as inspiration for how we can all look after God's world as we move into our next RE topic of Creation.
