BEING HAPPY AND PROUD OF YOURSELF (enjoying and achieving)

A group of 5 - 11 year olds at Young Asian Voices have worked together to come up with a list of things which explains what 'Enjoying and Achieving' means.  Read the list and see if you agree

• Getting awards and high grades
• Being happy
• Feeling proud
• Having a good lifetime
• Picnics, football
• Teamwork
• Nice clothes, money
• Holidays
• Good food
• Parties
• Feeling confident
• Relaxing
• School, lessons, after school clubs, kids club, trips, good exam results
• Computers, art, music, dancing, entertainments, Metroland

But not all children in Sunderland are happy and proud of themselves

• some young children don't get a chance to go to nursery
• not all children go to school every day
• not all children do very well in their exams
• not all children have enough fun things to do in their spare time

To make things better Sunderland Children's Trust will

• help young children do well in nursery
• make sure all children go to school every day
• help children do well in their SATs and exams
• help schools to teach sport well
• make sure children have places to play which are fun and safe
