Level 2 Yellow Donate to WWF

Level 2 Donate to WWF A massive well done to our Level 2 Yellow pupils for their donation to World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF) after raising money by creating handmade cards about endangered animals and selling them to the Level 2 and Level 1 pupils. The topic about Animals in Danger emerged through a story read to them called Harry and the Dinosaurs go Wild, related to the emergent topic being done in class, The Land Before Time. As the story unfolds, Harry and his dinosaurs are horrified to discover that some animals are in danger of becoming extinct. Harry wants to help save them, but Sam says that he is too small and cannot do anything that will make a difference. In the book, Harry made handmade cards and sold them to raise funds for these animals, and our pupils followed!
