As part of our Rights Respecting Schools journey, we now have Playground Charters in both our infant and upper playgrounds.

Last session, P6 and P7 took part in a ‘Design a Playground Charter ‘ competition.  The RRS committee worked together to decide on the rights that should be included.

Our Playground Charter Rights are;

• Article 15 – You have the right to choose your friends and groups.

• Article 19 – You have the right to be looked after, protected and kept safe.

• Article 12 – You have the right to give your opinions on things and for others to listen.

• Article 31 – You have the right to play and rest.

The winning designs were originally going to be displayed in windows looking out onto our playgrounds. However the fantastic team at @BrandingHub in Ayr, very kindly printed our designs as huge banners.

Our banners are displayed in our playgrounds to remind our children of their rights and the responsibilities both adults and children have in promoting these rights.
