As part of our community fortnight, Primary 6 have been looking at the value ‘Support’. We talked about a time that we have been supported or supported others and we wrote down a list of ways that we can support each other in school. These included: helping each other with our learning, comforting others when they are sad and treating everyone with respect.
We have also been working on forming our class charter. We looked at the articles from the UNCRC in groups and chose the rights that we thought were most relevant to our class. We then voted as a whole class to base our charter on the four rights below.
Article 28 – We have the right to an education.
Article 19 – We have the right to be safe and protected.
Article 13 – We have the right to find out information and express ourselves.
Article 14 – We have the right to choose our own religion and beliefs.
We worked together to list positive actions that we should do to ensure that everyone has these rights in our classroom.
