[2020·Ì«Ô­Öʼì]    We're often reminded of the importance of preserving the planet as we see it for future generations — and children at St Oswald's CE Primary School Chester certainly agree.

Nine­year­old Isobel Kelleher from the school's Hummingbirds class thinks adults need to take note. “Sometimes they can be busy and I don't think they think they can make a difference, but if everyone does a little bit it all adds up£¬” she tells HuffPost UK. “We started looking at plastic pollution in our oceans and the things like plastic bags that are polluting them£¬” she says. “Fish can eat the plastic and they can die, or we might even eat the fish ourselves.”

 Mr. Timms, Isobel's teacher, has been spearheading a new project at the school which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more environmentally friendly. The entire Hummingbirds class, which is made up of 9­ and 10­year­old pupils, has been busy writing poems and creating online video adverts to warn adults about the serious situation of our oceans and wildlife.

      Mr. Timms thinks children have an important role to play in teaching us how to take care of the things around us. “We sometimes overlook how much we can really learn from children£¬” he says. “It has been really hard to believe having parents come in saying that their children have been asking them to stop using plastic, and to recycle more, and even stopping them using plastic straws.”

   Mr. Timms is proud of his Hummingbirds class. “The message that they would like to send to the world is simple£ºstopping this isn't someone else's job, and it won't be OK if we just leave it.”
