Children's Rights


Every child should have equal rights. At Nelson Central School we have these rights. Some people don’t have these rights. It’s not fair that we have clean water and they don’t.

We have been learning about the children of Kroo Bay. Kroo Bay is a slum community in Africa. Every child needs to walk far` away to the doctor. In Kroo Bay they don’t have enough medicine. They only have one clinic in the whole of Kroo Bay. One child out of five will die of malaria. Every 30 seconds people will die.

In Kroo Bay they have built their homes out of rubbish. People in Kroo Bay don’t have electricity. They don’t have windows, they have curtains. They do not have stable houses.

Save the Children helps poor children all around the world. I would like to buy a mosquito net from the Save the Children Wish List. $13 is the price.
