Oakgrove School brings 'Wangari's Trees of Peace' to the Scottish Parliament
On 21 September a group of P7 children from Oakgrove school, led by Friend Mary Troup and accompanied by professional musicians, gave a wonderfully planned and executed performance of 'Wangari's Trees of Peace', the story of how one Kenyan woman's determination founded the green belt movement in Kenya. Educational professionals and MSPs alike were moved and inspired. With its core theme of 'Never give up' it was the perfect 'all singing all dancing' way to lay the foundation for our 'Peace at the Heart of Scottish Schools' exhibition the following week.
