School children in Jersey have been learning about African culture and heritage.
The Friends of Africa CI charity has been visiting schools across the island as part of Africa Awareness Week.
The charity spoke to pupils and answered questions about what it means to be African and they also shared African music.
Lesley Katsande, from the charity, said: "We need to embrace our differences as well as our similarities."
Ms Katsande said African and Caribbean people made up 1.7% of Jersey's population
She said that was a relatively large population for the island and "schools have been responsive to our campaign".
Jayden and Georgia, both seven, were among the pupils who enjoyed a presentation from the charity at Rouge Bouillon Primary School.
Jayden said "it was fun and fantastic" to take part.
"I had so much fun with the dancing and wriggling," he said.
Georgia added: "It's been really good.
"I might learn more and I think it would be really cool to learn about different countries that I'm not from."
As part of the awareness week, Friends of Africa is also hosting fashion and food stalls in the Royal Square from 16:00 BST until 20:00, as well as a free nightclub event for African music.
Ms Katsande said the charity was looking to potentially extend their work next year to include care homes.
