Article 15

Every child has the right to meet with other children and to join groups and organisations....πŸ‘«

This may seem like a strange Article for us to be exploring at the minute. However, we still have the right to meet other children and join organisations but very unusual circumstances mean that we need to refrain from doing this at the minute. The government is trying to keep us all safe. In the future, hopefully not too far away, we will be able to meet our friends πŸ‘­ and return to school. Clubs and organisations will resume again. We have a lot to look forward to!🌈

But adults know it  has been very difficult not to see other children and adults outside of our immediate family. Sometimes we could feel sad πŸ˜” and a bit lonely 😞. When we feel like this it can help us to connect with other people. Why not try the following activities to cheer you and some other people up?

Remember to post up your work and spread a smile 😊 !

FS- Draw a picture of someone you are looking forward to seeing again- when it is safe to do so. Write a sentence about them. πŸ–Ό

KS1- Write a short letter to your class saying what you are looking forward to doing when school returns. It could be  just catching up on all your news. πŸ“„πŸ“ƒ

KS2- Think about a group or club you are part of.🏊🏻‍β™‚οΈπŸŒπŸΎ‍β™‚οΈπŸ€ΈπŸ½‍♀️ Create a poster or leaflet to encourage other people to join. Make sure to list all of the reasons why it is a good idea πŸ’‘ to join this group.
