This week is Children’s Week, a national celebration of children’s rights, talents and citizenship. It highlights the importance of all young people and encourages children to participate and contribute to the society in which they live and to exercise their rights.
To celebrate Children’s Week in the House this week we are playing games and doing challenges to encourage each other to find things in common and to develop friendships.
We are having discussions about what clubs and groups we are part of in our community, such as Little Athletics, soccer, Girl Guides, Scouts, Surf Lifesaving and look at the different groups that children can join.
We are talking about how to make a difference in society by following what we are passionate about, helping other people and creating a happy community.
Some of our challenges include designing the tallest toothpick towers, basketball and soccer shootouts, egg and spoon races and ring toss.
