Community Primary School
During Black History Month 2005 Year 3 and 4 read 'The Bus Ride'.
The book is a moving, re-imagined story of a young girl making the fateful decision not to give up her seat.
Sarah and her mother ride the bus every day. There are lots of other people on the bus, but some passengers aren't allowed to sit in certain areas.
One day, Sarah decides to see what she's missing by sitting at the back of the bus. The moment she moves up front she sets off a commotion that reverberates furiously throughout the city.

What do you like?
I like the story because Sara is fighting for her rights. Nana
We like the part when Sara stands up for herself because she's defending herself even though her mother wasn't there. Nghiem and Ndamu
What don't you like?
I dislike the part when the policemen came to check what was going on in the bus. I hate it because what's the point of getting cross about it because she is just a little girl. I like the part when Sara's mum didn't get cross at her. I like it because she didn't smack her. Nilay
