Our intermediate students, Grade 4-7, participated and stayed silent for 2 hours. It was hard to stay silent for 2 hours. We wore face masks that we sold for $2, and a lot of people took the Vow of Silence, students and teachers .
It went very well and after school we celebrated. At our school library we all watched a video about children around the world who cannot speak up for themselves. After that we took the masks off and had popcorn and lollipops. We thought that since it was the Vow of Silence that we would do the We Day Dance silently. We raised $123 in total. That's another brick for our school! We think many more people now know about children rights in other countries because of the Vow of Silence.
