Southwell's Minster School students joined a climate change protest

Students from a Southwell school joined in with a global climate change protest.

Minster School students left lessons at 2.14pm on Friday to participate in a protest with other schools and students from around the world.

The aim was to put pressure on world governments to act on climate change.

According to the United Nations intergovernmental panel on climate change, climate change could become irreversible by 2030.

Minster School students joined in to show their dedication to the planet, to make a difference in the local community and the wider world.

Many students protested with their own home-made banners.

The students marched from the school, to the market place and back again.
