Rights Respecting Schools Event 2016

Leave a reply

The Rights Respecting Schools Group organised an information event for staff, parents and members of the community.  The purpose of the event was to inform and involve all different members of the school community about the rights work being carried out.  The pupils led the event by presenting a power point and asking questions about Children’s rights.  They went on to work alongside the adults to come up with different ways the children at Boghall Primary School get their rights in school and in the community.  Fairtrade tea, coffee and goodies were served as a special treat to those who attended.

The event was well attended and a great success!  Well done to the RRS group for all their hard work!  A big thank you to those who attended and for your positive feedback on our event.

Dinner hall charter

Leave a reply

The whole school have been working on creating a dinner hall charter.  During whole school time and assembly, all the children were asked their opinion and discussed what rights should be included as well as what pupils and adults should do in order to keep the dinner hall a clean and safe place to be for all.  Some of the Rights Respecting School’s group also carried a survey during lunch time and asked pupils questions about the dinner hall for the charter.  All pupil’s and staff opinions were taken into consideration when devising the charter.  Here are some photos of the pupils from the Rights Respecting Schools group listening to others.

Article 12: Every child has the right to say what they think in all matters affecting them, and to have their views taken seriously.

Boghall Primary is a rights respecting school

Leave a reply

We have got off to a great start this year at Boghall PS.  All classes have been busy discussing their rights and establishing rules in their new class.  Each class has been discussing and creating a class charters and encouraging each other to display rights respecting behaviour at all times.  The RRS group has been busy organising an event for all staff and members of the community to come and learn about how we are a rights respecting school.  They are looking forward to this on Wednesday and Friday of this week.
