In Primary, children were encouraged to express their voices and actively participate in choosing many of their own activities. They explored the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, gaining a deeper understanding of their rights, including the right to play, access to education, and having their opinions respected. Additionally, they learned that these rights come with responsibilities, reflecting on how they can demonstrate these responsibilities in their daily lives.
In Secondary, students engaged in thoughtful discussions and activities centered around the importance of childhood, both locally and globally. They explored what childhood means, how it is different across the world and reflecting on the experience of other children's childhood. Opportunities of discussion led to students considering how they can play an active role in promoting their rights as part of the Convention on the Child.
As part of our ongoing commitment to empowering students, we are excited to announce a school-wide competition: ‘Be a Principal for a Day!’ In honour of World Children’s Day, we want to hear from our students! It’s time to have their say and voices heard. The lucky winner will get a chance to be Principal or Head of School for the day and have the chance to see their ideas put into practise. We can’t wait to see the creative ways that showcase our children’s leadership and visions.
Thank you for your continued support in fostering a learning environment at home where our students can continue to reflect, engage and inspire positive change. We look forward to seeing the creative ideas that emerge from this competition!
