Jantar marks Internatioanl Children's Day

International Children’s Day is celebrated every year, on 20 November, in order to increase awareness about children’s rights and highlight the fact that every child is precious and has the right to have food and housing, to grow up healthy and safe, and have plenty of time for education and play. It is sad that even nowadays many children live in poverty, famished and homeless, and that they cannot go to school, but have to work or beg in the street, especially in undeveloped countries.

Out teachers and students are going to do various activities, sing songs and tell stories to mark the event. The children in our school will even get the chance to go to the cinema. It might help them realize that watching films is something we usually take for granted, while some children do not know what cinema is.

Children are our future. We should nurture them, educate them and instill proper values in them so that they become good people who, one day, might change this world for the better.
