This week, our Living and Learning statement is I know that rights come with responsibilities.
In Year 3, we have been learning that rights are the things that everyone deserves (like being safe, cared for and listened to) and responsibilities are the things we should do to make sure we and others can enjoy those rights (like following rules, showing respect and helping others).
The children discussed examples of rights they have at school, such as the right to learn, play and feel safe. The responsibilities that go with them, such as listening carefully, taking care of equipment and being kind.
Help at Home: Talk to your child about their rights and responsibilities at home. For example, they might have the right to play with toys but the responsibility to tidy them away afterwards. Sharing examples together will help to strengthen their understanding.
