Claremont Primary School in Tunbridge Wells has been teaching its Year 4 classes about the causes and effects of climate change.
As well as learning all about it, the pupils have conducted research, written letters to Greg Clark MP and created their own placards.
At the end of last month the children went on a climate change march through nearby Grove Park and the High Street.
Candi Roberts, headteacher at Claremont said: “The pupils were wonderfully behaved, but not afraid to let their voices be heard! They turned lots of heads and were delighted when members of the public showed their support. Well done, Year 4 for representing both this great cause and our school so well.”
Year 4 student Lucas said: “I felt excited to do the march. The reason we did it was to show everyone how we feel about climate change and how bad it is.
“I loved hearing the cars beep and seeing people give us a ‘thumbs up’. It was great to see that people understood and supported us.”
Fellow Claremont pupil Nyah added: “I enjoyed the march because it was nice to prove to people that we need to act now. At first I was embarrassed about my drawing but a few people put their thumbs up. When they did that, it gave me confidence and I had lots of fun.”
