It is dangerous for anyone in Syria. ▸ Everyone is affected by the civil war.

A Syrian still there. DON'T FORGET TO COME TO THE OUTBURST OF MUSIC AT LUNCH TIME IN THE GYM ON MONDAY, WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY (IN THE SPORTS HALL ON TUESDAY)

10 SO WHERE ARE THEY GOING ▸ They go to places in neighboring countries like Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan into camps to stay until the end of the war. ▸ Some have tried to cross the ocean to get to Italy and Greece from Lebanon. ▸ Recently, one boat landed on the "Sovereign Base Area" in Cyprus, meaning that the first country of arrival was Britain - because they landed on Territory that is part of the U.K. ▸ For those in the camps life is not what they expected.

13 TEXT LIFE IN THE CAMPS ▸ Life in the camps is not much better as the local countries have little money. ▸ Many other countries have not given enough money to the camps to keep them in a good state. ▸ In the camps there is very little food or water. People are living in tents and children have to be wrapped up in blankets to keep warm.

15 REMEMBER TO BRING YOUR CAKES TO SCHOOL ON FRIDAY! SO WHAT DO THEY DO NEXT? ▸ Many stay in the camps to wait out the war. It may be hard but they are in an area they trust.

These people may not return to Syria when the war is finished because they may have built new lives in Europe ▸ Some people believe that the refugees should not leave the camps. Others think that they should be allowed to go to Europe. ▸ What do you think?

17 PROLOGUE 2 THURSDAY REFUGEE WEEK

18 Root to Germany from Turkey

19 TEXT DEFINITIONS ▸ Schengen area - made of 26 countries within the European Union, it is an area where no passport controls affect where people can go. ▸ Greece financial crisis - right now Greek banks have no money in them. They are struggling to pay their debts.

20 DAY 3 REFUGEE WEEK

21 REMEMBER TO BRING YOUR CAKES TO SCHOOL ON FRIDAY! FROM THE CAMP TO SERBIA VIA GREECE ▸ The journey to Greece can go across the Mediterranean Sea, which is very dangerous, or go via the land, which takes a lot longer. ▸ Greece is not a great place to be because of the Greek financial crisis, so there is an incentive to move on. ▸ And when they arrive in Serbia they are stuck at the border.

22 WHAT NOW? ▸ The Serbians do not want them in their country and eventually they are moved on to the next county. ▸ Their plan is to get to Germany but from behind this fence they can't go anywhere. They have to wait for trains or free buses to collect them. ▸ But while waiting for the transport, many of the refugees have died of exposure to the cold and wet. They have to live in cardboard boxes, or just sit in the rain, as very few people in Serbia want to help the refugees.
