On Friday 13th of May pupils and staff from Adrossan Academy collected every penny of loose change they could find to support UNICEF “Day for Change.” We raised over £130, which is an impressive amount of loose change that will help to keep children safe all over the world.

Supporting this important cause is part of our commitment to children’s rights and placing them at the heart of our school. Ardrossan Academy is currently working towards the UNICEF UK Rights Respecting Schools Award (RRSA). This award recognises achievement in putting the UN Convention on the Right of the Child (UNCRC) at the heart of a school’s practice to improve well-being and help all children and young people realise their potential. The award is based on principles of equality, dignity, respect, non-discrimination and participation.

If you would like to be involved in helping Ardrossan Academy to demonstrate our commitment to children’s rights, please contact the school.
