Our Class Charter

As part of our learning journey as a UNICEF Rights Respecting School, we agreed a class charter to help us to be the very best learners and globally-aware citizens that we can be.

After lots of discussion, we settled on Article 3 Best interests of the child as our umbrella right. Then we chose Article 12 Right to be heard,  

Article 29 Right to an education and Article 31 Right to relax and play.

Everyone in the class has signed up to our charter, making sure that everyone is doing their best to TALK, LEARN and GROW.

Talk, Learn, Grow

In Swan Class, we are working hard on our targets to develop our independence, become effective communicators and grow as responsible individuals. Our targets are taken from the Meath School Talk, Learn, Grow curriculum intent and help us to focus on ways in which we can build our resilience in our learning. We share these at the beginning of each learning session as part of our introduction including the WALT (We are Learning To) when we take it in turns to lead the class in Colour Words (see the Meath School specialist approaches).
