Meet CROSBIE!
Crosbie is our new Rights Respecting Schools mascot and stands for Children’s Rights of St. Bridget’s Includes Everyone. Designed by one of our families, Crosbie represents and champions the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child within our school. Look out for Crosbie popping up around the school, on our Twitter page and other correspondence to learn more about children’s rights and how we are ensuring that all of our children get to experience and enjoy their rights at St. Bridget’s.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is an important agreement by countries who have promised to protect children’s rights. Click HERE to read more about them.
