Rights Respecting Schools

Mrs Brown set a whole school challenge. Each class was given a right to learn about. Then we had to illustrate our right in the corridor. After a lot of discussion P5A decided to choose the biggest board to display our work on. 

The right we looked at was Article 32: Child Labour. We played the Paper Bag Game to find out what it is like for some children living in India. Unfortunately none of our families made enough paper bags to make enough money to survive.  Take a closer look at our display.

Article 32: Child Labour
Rachel is explaining how many rupees it cost to feed and shelter her family. Harvey is explaining how many hours some children have to work a day.
Niamh is explaining why she can't go to school. Kaitlyn is explaining why some families need to move to the city.
Mara works for the Government and is explaining article 32 to the children who make paper bags.
Our display is so big it can't fit in one picture!
