Stories of Chasing Asylum - Stories Of Hope

Students are introduced to the concept of hope and how it can emerge from the stories of people chasing asylum. They will read informative texts about the first ever Refugee Olympic Team and build their individual and collective understanding by considering stories that inspire and create a sense of hope. Using a selection of thinking, planning and writing tools, students will create a biographical text in which they use language to capture emotions, empathy and communicate experiences that inspire hope.
