We are all part of a number of communities - such as the area where we live, our school or a sports club we go to.

NARRATOR: Yes Pip, what you and Declan are part of is a community. There are lots of different types of communities, for example, your school.
The narrator talks about communities while we see animations of children and staff in school, communities around the world, and a school that's in a city.
NARRATOR: Your school is made up of lots of people, including, the kids in your class, the kids in other classes, the teachers and other staff members, like the school caretaker and the canteen staff.
NARRATOR: There are lot of different types of communities all around the world, that even you are a part of. Your school is part of a larger community - your town or city, and that is part of an even bigger community. We all have a part to play in the communities that we are a part of.

PIP: I had no idea I was a part of so many different communities!

PIP: One day I will have my black belt in Karate, and my karate community will be sooo proud of me. See you later Declan. Enjoy art club!
DECLAN: Thanks Pip, enjoy karate!
