At the moment, world leaders are gathering in Glasgow for COP26 – an important meeting to discuss climate change.

To coincide with this important meeting, we have 10 copies of the Horrible Geography: Planet in Peril book to give away! 

To be in with a chance of winning a copy of this book, all your child has to do is to design a poster encouraging other children / adults to make small changes to protect the planet. 

Rules:

• This competition is only open to children in Year 3 - Year 6
• The poster needs to be no bigger than A3 sized (twice as big as A4, photocopier paper)
• It can be drawn, painted, collaged or even designed on the computer (but must be printed out)
• It must have your child's name and class on the back
• It must be handed in to your child's class teacher by 9.00am on Friday 12th November. 
• Winners will be announced, and winning posters displayed, during w/c 15th November. 

We will be looking for the most eye-catching posters, which provide clear information and give other children / adults a few ideas about small changes to protect the planet.  

The BBC website also has a number of short videos which explain climate change to children and give some ideas about the small changes that they can make to protect the planet:
