Y5 worked so hard on their badge-making enterprise last term that they raised enough money to adopt their very own snow leopard! They have now received an adoption certificate thanking them for supporting the snow leopards of the sacred Himalayas, which are in serious danger of becoming extinct. They will receive regular photographs and updates about the species, and they also have their very own snow leopard, which they have named Bob, living in their classroom!
Y5 children have been finding about some of the problems facing endangered species around the world. They wanted to do something to help, and they were particularly concerned about the snow leopard which lives in the Himalayas because there are thought to be less than 4,000 left in the world. The children found out that they could help by adopting one of these animals, and they needed to raise some money to do this, so they designed and made badges which they sold in school on Tuesday. Everyone who bought a badge was also given an information leaflet so that they could find out about endangered species for themselves. Y5 are now looking forward to adopting their own snow leopard! |
