Year 6 led a thoughtful assembly all about Laudato Si’ and reminded us that we all have a responsibility to care for our common home – the Earth. Year 6 wrote a poem to explore this idea (see below). They reminded us that even the smallest acts, such as recycling, saving water, looking after wildlife and helping others, can have a big impact.💚 Our Common Home Before the roads, before the buildings, before the noise of the cities there was a world… A world of lush valleys. A world of strong tree roots A world of meandering rivers. And it was very harmonious. We have been given towering mountains, where snow falls. We have been given forests, where ancient trees still grow. We have been given sapphire oceans, where life began. We have been given roaming creatures, from the smallest ant, to the tallest giraffe This is our common home. But… We take. We demolish. We consume. We ruin. We hate. And who pays the price? The Earth. The animals. The people who have the least. But It’s just one piece of litter That leaves one permanent scar It’s just one bit of pollution. One breath we won’t get back It’s just one journey It could be one greener journey What difference can I make? Perhaps more than you think. One choice One better choice. This is our common home. Change begins with us!
