OutRight is a special campaign for schools in the UK that lets you speak out about children’s rights and celebrate the anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
We have decided to join this campaign and speak out about children’s rights, particularly those of refugees. All classes will be taking part in this campaign in different ways, eg. writing letters, making posters, having debates, making videos, etc. Ask your child next week what they have been learning in class.
The UN Ambassador’s committee will be gathering a selection of evidence to send to UNICEF to gain recognition for their campaign. They also hope to reach out to their local community via the P6 class assembly on Friday 18th November and through Twitter and Facebook. The committee are also hoping to make a short video which they will share with you next week. Please take the time to engage with the campaign as we really need your voice too!! It would be great to hear your thoughts on the refugee crisis via our blog page, facebook, twitter or dojo.
