The sentinel activity

This document is intended as a guide to share with Young Ambassadors how to set up some activities within the school, with the aim of promoting their role to their classmates.

Post the names of the Young Ambassadors

The first thing to do is make yourself known within the school and let your classmates understand your role and how to contact you. You could post on classroom doors, on the school bulletin board, or at strategic points about who you are, what you do and how they can contact you. We advise you to write some of the following points:

• Brief description of the role of the Young Ambassador

• Who we are

• Name Surname of the student - Class …

The notification box

Another very useful activity can be to build a report box, where your classmates can write concerns or reports. You can organize weekly/monthly occasions in which reports are opened and any questions answered: for example, if the pupil has indicated the class, the Young Ambassadors can leave a response letter in class which the pupil will then collect.

Organize thematic workshops

The basic idea is to share the topics you learned during the online training with your classmates, also using slides. Stimulate their attention by asking questions or organizing activities with them, such as brainstorming and role playing, you will find details in the next paragraph.
