As part of World Children’s Day yesterday, the school received a visit from PC Shannon Walker. She came in to talk to everyone about the rights they have as a child living in Scotland including their right to food and shelter and their right to have their own opinions.
PC Walker answered lots of questions about different scenarios the children came up with and how children’s rights would be part of these. She also discussed our role as responsible citizens
PC Walker talked about her job as a police officer and chatted about all the different things she carries with her to protect herself as part of ensuring her own right to safety.
We were very lucky as she let us get in the police car with the sirens on!
