Each of our children had the opportunity to attend one of our day trips to Dumfries and had an absolute ball – staff included!

Alana, Lesleyanne and Sherrie took it in turns to drive the children in 4 groups to the beautiful grounds and spent 4hours there exploring all it has to offer.

Hi everyone,

This month we will be exploring Article 27 from the UNCRC.  To promote the children’s understanding we will be asking the children

• what do you have in your house?
• what do you need in your house?
• what would you like in your house?

We have already been discussing this within the centre, but it would be great to see what the children could share with you at home.  Please tell us how you get on and share any pictures, markings etc for us to display proudly on our UNCRC display wall.

Article 27 (adequate standard of living)
Every child has the right to a standard of
living that is good enough to meet their
physical and social needs and support
their development. Governments must
help families who cannot afford to
provide this.
