This week we have been celebrating black history month in class and the wonderful Wangari Maathai who was the first African woman to win the Nobel prize. We have been speaking about how we can all make a difference ‘big or small’ 🦁 🐭

Wangari Maathai founded the green belt movement with a focus on the planting of trees in Kenya 🌳. For our project we buddied up with Year 3 and took a walk around our school to do some tree identification and even gave some trees a hug along the way! The children thoroughly enjoyed working well with Hedgehog class and sharing their ideas 😊

I will be a hummingbird, I will do the best I can - Wangari Maathai
