As part of our UNCRC yearly program we have been focusing on the following articles for October 2024 with a focus on celebrating Black History Month.<\/p>\n

Article 2 \u2013 No discrimination<\/p>\n

Article 30 \u2013 Minority culture, language and religion<\/p>\n

Black History Month takes place in October every year which honours the history, traditions, arts and culture of Black people both in the UK and across the globe and celebrates key figures and events in Black history, with an emphasis on celebrating the history and contributions to society of people with an African or Caribbean heritage. We have provided the children with a range of experiences including African foods and music, learning about African tapestry and jewellery.<\/p>\n

Staff will be reflecting on and considering what we do\/can do to challenge negative stereotypes and discrimination.<\/p>\n

This focus links to the SHANNARI indicators Respected and Included. We have used our characters ‘Respected Rhiya’ and ‘Included Isabella’ to promote these rights.<\/p>\n
