Yesterday, Mrs Franklin took our brand new Equality and Rights Advocates to their first EARA group meeting. Hampshire Equality and Rights Advocates (EARA) are a group of students from Hampshire schools who work collaboratively to promote equality and children's rights in their schools based on the nine protected characteristics of the Equality Act and UNCRC. 

Yesterday's session was an opportunity for our advocates to learn a little more about what their roles will entail and how they can promote equality and improve the understanding of a child’s right to the other children and adults at Great Binfields. This term, their specific focus is gender equality.

Mrs Franklin was really impressed by the ideas our group shared and how well they all displayed GBP values.

They were also lucky enough to be the first group of children to take a ride in the new school minibus! Thank you Mr Ellis!
