This week we have been have been discussing – Article 38 (Governments must not allow children under the age of 15 to take part in war or join the armed forces. Governments must do everything they can to protect and care for children affected by war and armed conflicts). As we prepare for Remembrance Day on the 11th of November. We discussed the impact of war on families and places that they live. We reflected on the importance of the poppy to remember those soldiers who died or were injured in wars.
