Refugees International Japan Concert

Last night, fourth graders participated in a benefit concert at St. Mary's International School for the nonprofit, Refugees International Japan. In addition to our fourth graders, Seisen students from third grade, fifth grade and the high school participated. Other performers included groups from the British School and from St. Mary's International School.

A few weeks prior to the concert, representatives from Refugees International Japan gave a presentation to the fourth graders about the mission of their organization. Taking action by raising funds for their projects is a great way for students to start tuning into the big ideas present in our third unit of inquiry: Rules, Rights and Responsibilities.

During the Rules, Rights and Responsibilities unit, fourth graders will inquire more into human rights, including children's rights.
