The theme of this year’s Antibullying week was ‘Make a noise about bullying’ where we reminded children to talk to an adult if they are worried about bullying and to show kindness through their actions. The children wore  ‘odd socks’ to help understand the message that we are all special and unique and should not be teased for being different.  As well as special assemblies each class contributed to the theme in their own way.

Rec– Made a recipe for friendship and posters to show how they looked after each another

Y1— Read stories that supported the theme and made ‘Good friend hand wreaths’

Y2— Designed posters on how to ‘make a noise about bullying’

Y3—Looked at cyberbullying and what a positive and negative response to on-line bullying would be

Y4—Worked together to write antibullying poetry

Y5—Wrote antibullying poems and designed posters around the ‘make some noise’ theme

Y6 worked on one of their passport activities which was to design an event for the school.  They planned and delivered a fabulous day of antibullying workshops for other classes to take part in.  Activities included friendship chains, bullying Bingo, board games, making ‘make a noise’ shakers, Odd Socks puzzles and ‘Small Girl Big World’ scenario plays.  Everyone enjoyed the Y6 workshops and we all enjoyed sharing work completed in Antibullying week in Monday’s worship.
