Hi everyone,

For those who don’t know me my name is Rena and I, with the assistance of staff,  parents and children this year,  will be working on the Rights of the Child. Within the ECC  we will explore a range of articles from the UNCRC. As a centre we are aiming to achieve our bronze Rights Respecting Schools award before moving onto silver and of course (fingers crossed) one day GOLD 🙂

Each month we will concentrate on a new “Right” that reflects our children’s needs. Within the ECC the children and staff will gather evidence which will be documented in a floor book around how we ensure each of our children become more aware of their rights and how we help to support them in experiencing them. Parents will be asked to contribute their views on what they think we do well, and perhaps offer ideas as to what we may be able to do better. Within the centre there will also be a wall display where the children’s monthly Right will be displayed.

This month we will be starting with Article 24

“You have the right to adequate health care, clean water and nutritious food.

We would love for you to answer 4 very short questions in the FORM above. These should only take a few minutes to complete.

Thank you in advance
