In class our learning is often linked to children's rights and the articles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). We have been looking at the Duty Bearers in the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory story and talking about whether they are doing a good job or not.
Please ask your child about the parents of Veruca Salt, Mike TV, Augustus Gloop, Violet Beauregarde and Charlie Bucket. Ask them if they think these Duty Bearers are helping the children to achieve their rights. Your children should be able to explain their answer to you using some of the rights that we have learnt about from the UNCRC.
We have also been learning about the ABCDE of Children's Rights.
The rights are for:
All children, from
Birth, they
Cannot be taken away,
Do not have to be earned and are all
Equally important!

Many thanks
