Haiti


Mr King visited school last week and spoke to us about the earthquake in Haiti. We enjoyed dressing in the colours of the Haitian flag and raising money to help. Many people around the world have been helping. Have a look at the link below and find out how a seven-year-old boy raised more than £190,000 for victims of the earthquake . It's an interesting news story. Have you heard any interesting news about Haiti? Share it in a comment.
