You will recall reading about the Seen & Heard Group’s film on “Hidden Poverty” which will be used by UNICEF as part of their Education programme.

Since then, we have learned that the Group has won the Rotary International (GB and Ireland) Young Citizens Award.  The group will be presented with their award and a prize of £500 at the Rotary Conference in Bournemouth on Saturday 14 April.  The award ceremony will be presented by Newsround presenter, Ellie Christell.  This event will be covered live by the BBC News 24 channel.  Pupils were filmed by the BBC yesterday, Wednesday 28 March, and this will be shown as part of the live awards ceremony.
