Hide AdIt also houses the interactive, tactile, audio and visual stories of Sameson, a boy from Ethiopia, and Shamim, a girl from Uganda, who grew up engulfed by poverty and all the vulnerability and danger that brings.
The school’s chaplain, Father Matthew Askey, said: “This exhibition is a stimulating and inspiring way to gain perspective and broaden our understanding. It also enables us to consider how we might play our part in making a difference.”
The exhibition, which is free and open to all, runs at the school from 10 am to 4 pm on Saturday and from 11.30 am to 1.30 pm on Sunday.
