Last Friday was #HolocaustRemembranceDay and we learned the story of Iby Knill, a holocaust survivor. We all held a very interesting debate in our Period 1 classes about how her rights had been compromised as a young girl.

Our Right of the Month which we will be promoting in school throughout February is:

Article 3: The best interests of the child must be a top priority in all things that affect children.

[Catherine Russell @unicefchief]

Restricting female humanitarians from working and female students from access to education in Afghanistan is a blatant violation of fundamental human rights.
