RRSA Update – Term 1 2013

The RRSA members have worked very hard this term! They have attended an afterschool club where they created leaflets, were ‘RRSA Spies’ (linking rights to classroom displays) and lots more! They finished their busy term with a fantastic assembly today and informed parents of the RRSA work that has gone on within the school inlcuding important rights that parents can help us respect! Incase anyone missed our assembly a leaflet will be going out today to all parents!

Thank you RRSA members for all of your hard work! – Miss McKenna 🙂

Update of RRSA

We have been very busy in school completing RRSA work! Here is an update of what we have been doing!

In school we have been very busy making our classroom charters that display rights that we think are important.

We have also been learning about special articles like Article 19- ‘All children have the right to be protected from any harm.’ We think this is very important. 

Each class have been raising money for peanut paste, just £22.50 can supply a starving child for one month with peanut paste.

We will also be puting up playground charters to be safe in the playground and respect other peoples rights. We have been inventing the perfect teacher in our school topic ‘Every child needs a Teacher’ to raise awareness that some children in the world don’t have a teacher.

Finally we need parents to help us plan and organise fundraising events! Soon there will be a sheet in the school where you can sign up to help! The RRSA club will be having an assembly soon.

We will keep you posted with more updates.
