Once again the Grade 2s are continuing their support for the Legacy Water Foundation! :)

While learning all about other countries in the world, Mrs. Jackman takes a bit of time to explore the issue that water brings, especially to developing nations. From these conversations learning about kids in other countries having to carry water for long distances over many hours, students realize that they should do something to help and their annual classroom project begins!

Through multiple fundraisers over the year, students raise money in order to help repair broken and damaged wells in areas in great need of fresh, clean water. Students will do chores, collect bottles, and even complete a long walk around the school grounds, while carry water bottles, trying to put themselves in the shoes of kids who need to walk for hours in order to get clean water.
