RRS AWARD FOR THE SECOND TIME!
As you know, Boghall Primary was awarded a second Level 2 Rights Respecting School Award a few weeks ago. This is a fantastic achievement as not only were we the first school in West Lothian to achieve the Advanced level 2 award back in 2011, we are now the first school in West Lothian to be awarded level 2 for the SECOND time! We were delighted to welcome back Tam Baillie (The Children’s Commissioner) to our school to present us with the award. Here are some of the official photographs that were taken on the day.
Google Expedition visit with P6
P6 were lucky to be the first to have a visit from the Google Expedition team. We visited lots of different expeditions and had fun looking a Elephants, Giraffes, Sharks, Snakes, Volcanoes, Planets and Stars. We thought the best expeditions were the underwater ones. Sorry for being so loud (“THERE’S AN ELEPHANT!!”) but we had a lot of fun!! Thank you for visiting us Google!
Rights Respecting Schools Event 2016
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.
Here are the Right Respecting Group welcoming everyone to their event.
As you can see, the event was well attended
The adults had some great ideas about how children get their rights in Boghall Primary and in the community.
The children in the RRS group were great at helping the adults with some ideas!
Dinner hall charter
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.
