PRIMARY school pupils have been fundraising and tackling big issues as they enjoyed creating a sculpture exhibition.
Holy Trinity Primary School has held its Courageous Voices and Global Citizenship exhibition.
The event was an enrichment project extending the school's curriculum so children could discuss and debate the big issues, challenge injustice and engage in activities which can bring about change.
During this sculpture project each class focused on a different article from the United Nations Conventions on the Rights of the Child.
Each class has also been working through global issues which mean something to them, from artificial intelligence to deforestation.
Children talked about how the world can take action in making a better world for all children, both now and in the future.
Some classes also embarked on fundraising ideas to raise money for good causes such as Money for Madagascar.
The classes collected money through sponsored events to help build new hygienic facilities for the children to tackle sickness and child mortality - creating safe places where children can thrive.
The Ladybird class focused on all children having the right to an education and how to raise awareness about this through sculpture.
They have also been supporting the charity First Steps 2 School – Peru.
They held a biscuit stall where children across the school could decorate a biscuit, raising £40.50 to help children in Peru have access to an education.
The Hammerhead class walked, ran, danced and bounced like lemurs - animals only found in Madagascar - around the daily mile track to raise money for school toilets and hygiene education in the island's schools.
The target was to raise £80 for a single toilet, but the school raised £250 - enough for a block of three toilets.
Headteacher Sarah Rowe said: "It is important for our children to appreciate their role as part of a community, to take responsibility, to be able to look after themselves and to foster an understanding of their importance, impact and influence in the world.
“This exhibition was a great way to use their creativity alongside global citizenship."
The exhibition is now on display in St Andrew’s Church until September.
