The UK media has many words for refugees. But the story they spin shouldn’t be the last word. That’s why we’re proud to support #HopeNotHeadlines. With each new slogan and soundbite, we’re changing the story together. Here’s how: hopenotheadlines.org

What a week we have had! We learnt the names of fruits in Turkish, watched the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar and learnt about the life cycle from caterpillar to butterfly. We're looking forward to the weekend and to continuing the fun again on Monday. #svitacbosnia

We started the last week by celebrating the International Day of Non-Violence. We also had some great workshops with the local youth, made some music, played games and did arts and crafts. We hope your week was as great as ours! 🙂 #svitacbosnia #firefly_international #music
