This week’s activities link to ​

Articles 24 and 27:

Article 24 (health and health services)

Every child has the right to the best possible health. Governments must provide good quality health care, clean water, nutritious food, and a clean environment and education on health and well-being so that children can stay healthy. Richer countries must help poorer countries achieve this.

Article 27 (adequate standard of living)

Every child has the right to a standard of living that is good enough to meet their physical and social need sand support their development. Governments must help families who cannot afford to provide this.

We thought about the importance of having clean water and small actions creating a ripple like a pebble in a pond.

Over the week Scottish and parent volunteers visited classes to talk about the importance of water.

We all have water saving diaries to bring home.

Wk beginning 9th March

This week in our gatherings we talked about articles 17, 29 & 31

Article 17 (access to information from the media) - Every child has the right to reliable information from a variety of sources, and governments should encourage the media to provide information that children can understand. Governments must help protect children from materials that could harm them.​

Article 29 (goals of education) - Education must develop every child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full. It must encourage the child’s respect for human rights, as well as respect for their parents, their own and other cultures and the environment.​

Article 31 (leisure, play and culture) - Every child has the right to relax, play and take part in a wide range of cultural and artistic activities. ​

We asked the children to be quiet and allow themselves a few minutes to think:

​

It has been said that “We don’t need books anymore because we have the internet.”

Do you agree with the statement? ​

Do books matter to you?​

If you could keep only one book from all that you have read, which would it be? What made you choose that one?​

Who would you like to tell about this specialbook?​
