Final Thoughts



In my opinion I have answered my questions in my first blog,

“As I read through the information I began to ask myself, how does the UNCROC convention on Human Rights affect communities and early childhood settings around the world?  What’s more how does this affect the families, children and work colleagues in my New Zealand early childhood setting?”

 

Based on all the information on Children's Rights I have read, I am sure that with the commitment I have to early childhood education I will continue to  inspire the children's learning and growth.  I absolutely agree with Children's Rights for the Child, and have enjoyed  researching and been amazed at the people supporting Children's Rights.   Finding out the 'ins and outs' of the policies, legislations, reports and the information about the  many organisations that support Children's Rights had encouraged me to reflect on my practice, my beliefs and values. 

 

Through the commitment I have shown while  achieving my degree in Teaching and therefore after I will continue to gain more knowledge to be the best I can in supporting the children and their rights while in an early childhood setting or in the community.

 

After reading all the information on my topic, Children’s Rights I have learnt that New Zealand is trying very hard at overcoming the problems we face however it is going to be require continuous action.   I agree with Dr Russell Wills the Children’s Commissioner on the importance of children and their rights and that the children are our future and we need to protect them.

  1. Hi Debbie. Firstly I would like to say how much I thoroughly enjoyed reading your blog. I learnt lots, to be honest prior too reading it I didn’t have much of an idea about what human rights for children involved. I really liked the way you made links to extra websites for readers to extend on their knowledge if they want to. You used a good range of references. I would agree that text bullying is common and has a high impact on suicidal, I would say along with other devices such as face book also. Well done Debbie – Keep up the good work 
