Super Ambassador Training - October 16th 2019

World Children’s Day 2019

We celebrated World Children’s day at Albany. Wednesday 20th November 2019 marked 30 years since the introduction of the UNCRC. We celebrated this as a school. The Super Ambassadors and Rights Raccoons led an assembly and set competitions to design bunting to hang around the school to help with celebrations. The children judged the entries and the winning design for each year group won a certificate and a prize. Children and staff across the school wore blue to celebrate the event. Pupils in all classes participated in activities to learn and understand children’s rights. There were also practical challenges where children learned about the journey to water sources to collect water and carry it home. We held a special assembly on a Friday to find out what each class had done throughout the week to celebrate World Children’s day. 

Some Rights Raccoons representatives visited Grangetown Nursery On Wednesday 29th January to share our rights journey with some children and staff from other schools. The children did a great job of presenting to the other schools in our School improvement group. We are hoping to achieve the Silver Rights Respecting schools award this year so are working towards this. 
Following our Senedd meeting on January 14th the Rights Raccoons have also agreed to work alongside Mr Barrett and the Happy Health committee to work towards gaining the Schools of Sanctuary award this year. Find out more about the award here. https://schools.cityofsanctuary.org/

Rights Racoons Meeting. A busy meeting deciding where to display children's rights around our school.

Every child has the right to the best possible health. Governments must work to provide good quality care, clean water, nutritious food and a clean environment so that children can stay healthy.
