Imagining Aberdeen

Three hundred children from Bramble Brae Primary, Manor Park Primary, Riverbank Primary and Tullos Primary are Imagining Aberdeen as a place where children are healthy, happy and safe. Children have been considering life in the community, at home and at school and exploring the idea of human dignity. Soon 20 of these children – our Imagineers – will take part in a Mural Project which captures children’s vision for the city.

Children’s Parliament Investigates…

Through the lens of children’s human rights children from 8 schools across Edinburgh are exploring what children need to be healthy, happy and safe at home, school and in the community. In each school a team of CP Investigators are exploring children’s perspectives on bullying. Their ideas and investigations will be shared with the City of Edinburgh Council to help influence the Council’s understanding of bullying in schools.
