Thought for the Week (#TftW) is a weekly theme all staff and students focus on to help us consider issues and topics that affect how we live and how our lives impact on others. Discussion during Registration and Class Time helps students develop their opinions and consider their actions in different contexts.
Every Monday morning we introduce our thought for the week. Thoughts may be inspired by particular curriculum or topical events, our Golden Rules, or general world observations.
Our #TftW will be read out in classes, on VIBE radio, and is also shared in assemblies and symbolised.
This year the #TftW will be linked to the UNICEF Rights of the child as we work towards achieving the level 1 Rights Respecting Schools Award.
Initially, we will be introducing the idea of rights and then we will be covering 1 ‘right’ each month, starting with article 31 ‘Every child has the right to relax, play and take part in a wide range of cultural and artistic activities’.
