P5/6 have been exploring their rights and responsibilities this week. The pupils were able to discuss and select the three most important rights they felt were relevant to our classroom. They then agreed on the  responsibilities that both adults and pupils have to make sure are respected and were able to incorporate this into our fruit themed charter!
