Do you want to know a way to brighten up your school? One way to brighten up a school is to paint a mural on one of the classroom’s walls.
For example, in our school, there is a mural in the Team ORCHID newsroom. It is of kids respecting and treating each other with care even if they are in a wheelchair or of a different skin color.
Murals can be painted by kids — with painters. Wouldn’t that be fun knowing you painted that mural in your own school? So right now when you’re done reading this, write a note to the head of the school and get a mural in your school.
