Today we looked at Article 15 (freedom of association) We learned that every child has the right to meet with other children and to join groups and organisations, as long as this does not stop other people from enjoying their rights.  We considered what being part of a group could do for us and what might be expected to form a successful group.

We looked at the school groups we have available and what being a member of them would involve.

We have:

Vice House Captains

Pupil Action Group

Eco Committee

JRSOs

Digital Leaders

At todays assembly we spoke about the role education has in developing children’s talents.

Schools must help develop a child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full. We also considered the importance is showing/developing respect for human rights, as well as respect for parents/carers, the environment and other cultures.

At todays assembly we looked at article 28 – A child’s right to education.

Today we learned that all children across the world have the right to access primary education for free, and secondary education must be available to every child.

We also learned that the quality of the education that is received must be high and that just being in a school is not enough.
