Guinea Pig Handling Consent Form

We are very excited to be welcoming our new guinea pigs to the school this week.  Our children have been working hard to create the perfect new home for them.

All children will be given the opportunity to come and see the guinea pigs and handling will be introduced very slowly to ensure both the children and guinea pigs feel comfortable and safe.

Please complete the form below to let us know whether you give consent for your child/children to handle the guinea pigs.

RRS Outright Campaign

During the next two weeks classes will take part in UNICEF’s Outright campaign.  This campaign empowers children and young people to realise their own rights, and speak out in support of the rights of all children. This year, focuses on Article 24 (the right to the best possible healthcare).

Children will access learning activities and presentations in class that will help them understand more about their rights.

Please ask them all about what they are learning!

Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood (RSHP)

During Term 4, as part of our Health and Wellbeing curriculum  for all stages, the children will be covering outcomes within the Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood programme.

It is important that we keep you informed of sensitive topics we are covering and make you aware of what will be taught at Early level (ECC /P1), First level (P2-P4) and Second level (P5-7)

The video below will provide you with all the information about RSHP and what will be covered at each level.

We hope you find this information useful when discussing these topics at home with your child.

If you are unsure of anything or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the school.

Thank you

Right of the Month – March

This month our pupils will be learning about Article 3   – All adults doing what is in their best interests.

The children will be involved in activities which will give them the chance to discuss why it’s important for adults to make certain decisions about their lives.

They will discuss why certain decisions in schools are made by adults and what decisions they have a voice in and why.

Are these decisions in their best interest? Are they fair?
