Rozi, a pupil at Grimsdyke School in Harrow, was tasked to build a vehicle for the term topic “People who help us” and chose London’s Air Ambulance Charity’s iconic red helicopter.
Sara, Rozi’s mum, said: “We saw London’s Air Ambulance Charity’s helicopter on my Instagram and thought you were the perfect example of “people who help”. We also thought it would be nice if we made a model and sent it to you. We hoped it would make you happy, as everyone is happy when their hard work is appreciated!”
Only five years of age, Rozi quickly fell in love with the project and spent hours painting and gluing the helicopter creation. “She also really enjoyed playing with it once it was done!” said Sara.
“The most important part was that she was interested in how the air ambulance works and what happens when the helicopter visits someone who needs them.”
Rozi, Sara and their family recently moved to London from Hungary.
“We were surprised London’s Air Ambulance was a charity, but that made us enjoy this project even more and hope Rozi’s story will help engage others."
If Rozi has inspired you, London’s Air Ambulance Charity has a fun and creative project called Create-a-Copter that you’re welcome to get involved with.
You can register your school, class or youth group and use arts and crafts to save lives in London.
As pupils create their amazing helicopters, they’ll learn about our service, our charitable status and the roles, responsibilities and possible future careers within our life-saving organisation.
