Rights Respecting School
Rights Respecting Ambassadors
What is Rights respecting school?
It’s a community – involving all staff, parents, and governors, where children’s rights are learned, taught, practised, respected, protected and promoted.
Young people and the school community learn about children’s rights by putting them into practice every day.
Charters
A rights-respecting charter is a visual, collaborative document created by a class or school community that establishes a set of principles and commitments based on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC)
. It outlines agreed-upon rights and the specific, mutual responsibilities that children and adults will uphold to ensure a positive and respectful environment where children’s rights are central to daily life and learning. These can look different in each classroom or area but all hold the same set of value.
Some of our year 5 and 6 pupils spent the afternoon at an athletic competition. They represented our school well and demonstrated their resilience. ... See MoreSee Less

What a great first week back for Year 1! The children came back with a wonderful attitude to learning and have started off the term with so much energy! We started our new Geography topic, “Where I Live” by exploring our local community and sharing observations about our surroundings. The excitement continued as we introduced our brand-new Curious Quests characters - the children can't wait to follow them on their learning adventures! Throughout the week, it was wonderful to see everyone exploring and extending their learning across our continuous provision areas. To finish off the week we had a parent story time 📚 A big thank you to the grown-ups who joined us, the children loved having you all there! We are looking forward to another fantastic week ahead! 😃 ... See MoreSee Less

Don’t forget to go along to the junior park run tomorrow! This could be the week we win the trophy again!✨ SCHOOLS SURVEY IS BACK IN THE MORNING ✨
It’s that day of the month where we take a tally of the schools of our participants to see which school brings the highest % of their school to our event.
There are two trophies up for grabs:
INNER SPENNYMOOR TROPHY - It’s been Rosa Street’s for the last two months, where previously it lived at Kirk Merrington. The only other school to have won in the past has been King Street. Usually in the Top 3 are either St Charles or Tudhoe Colliery with good showings from Springmoor Grange as well. Last month saw a big increase for Middlestone Moor, and were hoping for the same from North Park too!
OUTER SPENNYMOOR TROPHY - This is the trophy for the school that brings the highest % from a school outside of Spennymoor. Current holders are Escomb, and previous winners have been Cleves Cross, Toft Hill and Dean Bank .. will one of these schools take the trophy back to their school or is it another schools time?
Remember, the speed the course is completed does not matter, each junior is counted equally whether they are the first, fifth, fifteenth or fiftieth finisher. ... See MoreSee Less
