Dear School Community
We are delighted to let you know that we are on our journey to become one of the first Nursery Schools in Northern Ireland to be a "Nursery School Of Sanctuary."
The School of Sanctuary award is aimed at helping schools to develop further the concept that schools are welcoming places for pupils and their families, where every child feels safe, where they are fully accepted. These schools will become beacons in the community as places where cultural diversity is valued and celebrated.(EA)
We have started our journey by completing an audit to show us where we need to take action, buying resources to support all children in our setting and developing education for staff about Equality, Diversity and Inclusion.
Please join us on our journey.
