We use UNCRC articles to support safeguarding, children\u2019s voices, education, play, and health and well being factors. Below are some of the key articles within the UNCRC:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Non-discrimination (Article 2)<\/li>\n<li>Best interest of the child (Article 3)<\/li>\n<li>Right to life survival and development (Article 6)<\/li>\n<li>Right to be heard (Article 12)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Within the nursery children have opportunities to learn about their rights through play experiences, staff interactions and resources. Daily routines such as snack and access to the outdoors play a vital part in securing and supporting rights. Key workers and their group will focus on a chosen right each month, using free play, various activities and learning materials to explore these rights. Families will see monthly updates regarding how we have been advocating these rights with children \ud83d\ude42 All children are included in our practice and receive the same rights e.g. we have different resources to include all such as writing easels for those who\u00a0 benefit from a different position to draw and alternative foods for those with medical needs or dietary preferences. We ensure children have a \u2018don\u2019t have to ask\u2019 approach to receiving their rights, it\u2019s always there and available e.g. we have a daily hand washing routine, snack and water available and free play outdoors with emphasis on how these link to rights through child led checklists and helper badges. We celebrate different cultures such as Chinese new year, Christmas and the birth of Jesus to bring awareness of differences and rights to religion etc.\u00a0 Those in the UNCRC steering group that month working on UNCRC articles have the chance to take home learning packs and cuddles the bear. We work in partnership with the campus RRSA leads for the academy and 2 primaries. We plan termly collegiate experiences around the children\u2019s ideas and articles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>What we hope the benefits will be?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Children to become aware of their rights and identify areas of their life, whither at home or in the nursery that secure and promote and provide their rights. Additionally, our aim is for staff and parents to become more familiar with the rights and for our children and families to feel supported, valued and have a voice within the centre.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"We&#039;ve All Got Rights\" width=\"474\" height=\"356\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LN_70HXxd5Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/glowblogs\/public\/largsearlyyears\/uploads\/sites\/10681\/2024\/08\/14140101\/Lets-Explore-Our-Rights-Book.pdf\">Lets Explore Our Rights Book pdf <\/a> &#8211; We read this story to the children and it is also included in our UNCRC home packs.
