Learners and teachers, from Heavenly Flowers Primary School, in Delville and pre-school, in Lambton, recently took a stand against racism, through an anti-racism campaign.<\/p>\n

During the awareness campaign children were taught the importance of not discriminating against people based on the colour of their skin.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cWe strove to show the children through the campaign that the colour of your skin does not matter and does not define a person as everyone is created equal,\u201d said Heavenly Flowers\u2019 owner Heidi Searle.<\/p>\n

Children were given the opportunity to create brightly coloured posters with bold \u2018No To Racism\u2019 slogans that encouraged the community to take a stand and make a difference.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The children learnt a lot through the day\u2019s activities.<\/p>\n
