Article 13

The Respecters have been learning about Article 13 – You have the right to an opinion and for it to be listened to and taken seriously.

We now have a “Compliments, Complaints and Concerns” box, guarded by our Rights Respecting mascot “Tell me about it, Annie”. At any time pupils can add a compliment, complaint or concern to the box. The Respecters and Miss Florence check the box regularly and will be able to help out!

We discussed and wrote down some examples of how we can share our thoughts and opinions in school…

 

We are also working hard to gain our Bronze Award for Rights Respecting Schools. We are planning an assembly to remind everyone in our school about their rights. Watch this space for updates on the award!

Catching up with admin!

This week our Pupil Council were catching up with lots of admin jobs. They wrote a letter to the Parent Council, thanking them for organising the Christmas party. They also carried out a whole school survey for the Parent Council, asking about the timing of parties during the school year.

Some children worked on a poster, detailing all the things the Parent Council have funded for the school this year. Once the poster is finished we will share it here.

Another group are looking at running a fundraising event and are busy thinking up suggestions, which they will share with parents shortly.

We are very lucky to have such a hard working Pupil Council!

Pupil Council- Children in Need

On Monday the 11 of November we did Children in Need games like wordsearches, toss the bean bag, dress the Pudsey, guess how many pinecones are in the tub, guess the bear’s name and we raised £45.69 

Everyone really liked the games and Lucas said his favorite game was dressing the Pudsey and Charlotte’s favorite was ‘name the bear’. Ella also Liked the dress the Pudsey and Ernest liked the toss the bean bag game.

Pupil Council-New toys and French games

Mrs. Maclean bought us some new toys after the Pupil Council selected them. After the October holidays we were allowed to test them and play with the toys. 

These are the new toys we got: 

New Lego (motors and basic bricks) 

Cars (pull back toy cars) 

Farm animals (cows’ sheep and animals) 

Fidget toys (stress balls and squishy balls) 

Trains (we got wooden train tracks and trains) 

French Board games (we got new monopoly and other game boards) 

Paint (we got new paint brushes and pallets) 

These are the feedback responses we got from playing the toys: 

Lego- It was very fun especially with the motors with making vehicles. 

Animals-Great for building your world and telling stories 

Train track-Really fun to build and we can learn more about trains.
