Inspirational Malala Yousafzai

9th Oct 2025
Living life in all its fullness this half term, we have been learning about the Courageous Advocate, Malala Yousafzai. We have listened to her life story called ‘Malala’s Magic Pencil’ (which she wrote herself). We found out all about what her childhood was like and how brave she was when she told her story. The children wrote one fact that they had learned and many were shocked that girls were not allowed to go to school. We realised that Malala was very ‘brave’ and ‘strong’. This week, we continued to learn facts about her, including where she lived- a place called Swat Valley in Pakistan. We identified it on a world map and then found out facts about it.
