This year’s theme for Anti-Bullying is being united against bullying. This year, more than ever, we’ve witnessed the positive power that society can have when we come together to tackle a common challenge. Anti-Bullying Week is no different. Bullying has a long lasting effect on those who experience and witness it. But by channelling our collective power, through shared efforts and shared ambitions, we can reduce bullying together. From parents and carers, to teachers and politicians, to children and young people, we all have a part to play in coming together to make a difference. We’re all a piece in the puzzle, and together, we’re united against bullying.
We have had a wonderful week exploring how we can all be united together against bullying. We have been reminded that bullying is repeatedly and intentionally hurting someone, and that can be physically, verbally, indirectly or online.
We are all unique and by uniting together, it doesn’t take that away from us, it simply makes us stronger. We have more power to overcome injustice and adversity when we join together. Everything we do is a choice, and we choose to be kind to everyone, always.
We’ve had so much fun with Odd Socks Day, a special paired worship, a virtual visit from Duggie Dug Dug and lots of different different activities in our classes.
For homework this week, children created their own Anti-Bullying Superheroes so you can see some of our Anti-Bullying Superhero Squad in the photos below.
Remember, if anything is causing you to feel worried, it is always important to talk to someone. Each class has their own Worry Box or you can write in the Worry Box Blog. You can also talk to Ollee who can give you or your parents some helpful advice.
