Refugee Week

This week saw SPSM taking part in Refugee Week.  Our theme was 'Courage and Simple Acts' and we thought about the experience of Refugees through poetry, stories, books and interviews.  Classes were inspired to write their own poetry thinking about how courageous Refugees must have to be to leave all that they know behind to seek a life that is safe and away from danger.  Our main question for ourselves was, 'What simple acts can we undertake to welcome Refugees?'  This gave us time to think and reflect on our own lives and how fortunate we are.  We ended the week with a bake sale, all our fundraising will go to good causes linked to our week.
