Pupils in room 10 at St Joseph's School in Stratford spent last Thursday exploring how different their life might be if they lived in Cambodia.
Special character leaders at the school, Morwenna Richardson (12) and Jordan Rogers (12), say from the moment they woke up, the day was very different to a normal school day.
"We started school at 7.30am today because that is what happens in Cambodia," says Jordan. "It was hard waking up early. I felt so tired. I wouldn't want to do that every day," says Morwenna.
The pupils then started their lessons which continued until just after 10am.
In Cambodia, children then have to go and help their parents working in the fields, or maybe fetch water from the well.
