Tuesday, June 2nd – Morning Announcements

Posted June 2, 2020

Sdg 1Bonjour tout le monde. Aujourd’hui c’est mardi le 2 juin, 2020. Si le monde nous attend, qu’est-ce que nous allons le montrer? If the world is waiting for us, what are we going to show it?

Today, let’s look at the first Global Goal: No Poverty. What does it mean to live in poverty? This site has some resources for children of different ages who are interested in learning more:

An activity suggestion from MCIC (Manitoba Council for International Cooperation): “Child of any age: Think about how the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting those of different incomes. Brainstorm ways to help those who cannot afford to stop working or stockpile a couple weeks’ worth of food. Help support a local effort to reduce poverty: foodbanks, school food programs, homeless shelters, local charities or the United Way. Find out what’s happening in your community and get on board!”

How might you learn about, act on, or tell others about this goal? Take a photo or write a comment, then tweet it @kinggeorgeps or send it to [email protected]

Have a great day, King George!
