We Are What We Do choir (the global social change movement behind the best selling book 'Change the World for a Fiver') has been working with the children of Godwin School to think about how we can all use everyday actions to change the world.
The 'We Are What We Do' choir.
"Children understand issues such as global warming and recycling far better than most adults. They have lots of ideas about how to make the world a better place. At Godwin Primary School, the choir, together with their music teacher Jenny Beeching, decided to highlight the environmental damage caused by plastic bags by composing their own song. The children have seen photos in the press and on the television of baby birds with plastic stuck in their throats and round their necks. They wanted to do something to make people think twice before using plastic bags," says Frances Clarke of We Are What We Do .
"The children wanted to make their voices heard and to join the campaign against plastic bags and so we asked to sing our song in a Marks & Spencer store to celebrate its new policy of charging for plastic bags," adds Jenny Beeching Music Teacher at Godwin Primary School.
