Today we took photos of us jumping up and down against the detention of refugee children in Australia and Nauru. Miss Lee gave us a letter to decorate so that we could then take a photo of us one by one which makes a word after we were all done we made a youtube video which is called #IJUMPUPANDDOWN4KIDS
We are doing this because there are more than 600 children that are being put in immigration detention. Putting children in detention will not only hurts them, but ruins their childhood. We realise that not everyone is as lucky as we are and we think it is wrong that there are children our age in detention.
Check out our video:
Keep jumping up and down against the detention of refugee children in Australia and Nauru!
Congratulations Year 5.
ReplyDeleteYou video is fantastic and will raise awareness about a very important issue we should all jump up and down about!

Thanks for watching our video. I think all children have the right to be safe at home with their family. I think it is unfair that refugee children are looked up in detention. If Anh Do was looked up as a refugee instead of being welcomed into Australia we would not have is funny videos to watch and stories to read,

Thank you for watching our video, this issue makes me think of the books we have looked at, it reminds me of my parents who were from Vietnam.
DeleteHi Joanna
DeleteThanks for watching the video!
I really enjoyed making and decorating the letters. I also had so much fun for jumping up and down 4 kids. I think putting refugee children in detention is very wrong. All kids should have the right to be safe and have a home. It is unfair and cruel to do this to children. I thought we're better than this!
Kind regards
Georgia
I jump up and down 4 kids!
Thanks for watching our video and commenting on our blog post. We had lots of fun jumping up and down for refugee children in detention. I think that it is unfair that children are in detention and don't have the things that I have.

Thanks for watching our video the issue makes me think of the books that we have looked at ( The little refugee & Boy overboard because they both have a story telling that kids got transported into another country without there parents.
DeleteKind regards Stephanie
Thanks for watching it was really fun to make, I can't imagine what it would be like to be locked up like those children are. I think it's very unfair that they have to live like that. I believe that #Ijumpupanddownforkids is a great campaign to raise awareness. Thanks once again for watching

Thank for watching our video. I think that all children have the right to a safe home, Miss Lee's brother Michael told us about the rights of the child. This year is 25 years since the UN rights of the child was written. It is really important that refugee children should not be locked up because they did not do anything. I had fun making the video.

Jamie and Paul, I'm so glad you enjoyed making the video while raising awareness of this very important issue.

Matthew, Trish, Georgia and Kameron, I too think it is unfair that children are in this terrible situation. I agree it's wrong!

Joanna
James and Georgia it's great that you have made the connection between the great literature you have read during the year and a real issue in our country.

Joanna
Emily, I too can't imagine what it would be like for the children. I don't think it would be a very happy environment. I agree the Ijump4kids campaign is great.

Thalla it's great that you had the opportunity to learn from Miss Lee's brother about the UN rights of the child.

Thankyou for watching our video I hope you liked it. I think every child has the right to stay home safely with their family. We learnt this from Miss Lee's brother who was at the United nations in Geneva.

thanks for watching the video! I enjoyed making it. I also think every child needs to feel safe where they live and they deserve to be free doing what they are doing and being kids.
ReplyDeletekind regards Alessia
Thanks for watching our video
ReplyDeleteI think putting refugee children in detention centre is very disappointing because I bet any child would not want to be felt hurt or to commit suicide or even parents wouldn't want the same for there children. Also every child has a right to be happy and to feel happy and what Australia is doing to these kids are very bad and this just makes Australia a terrible and not welcoming place. Also Miss Lee's brother Michael taught us all of the children's right and so we have learnt a lot.
Sincerly yours,
