We have been celebrating Friendship Week and thinking about all the ways we can be good friends. We have also learnt about what bullying is and who to talk to if we are worried. We were treated to a fantastic assembly from Violet class, who showed us some role-play examples of how to be a good friend and reminded us to speak to an adult if we needed help. Everyone wore odd socks to school on Monday to celebrate their uniqueness and we sang the Anti-Bullying Alliance song for 2021: One Kind Word (click here). On Friday we all wore our pyjamas to school (including the staff!), and we raised nearly £250 for ‘Children in Need’ which will be donated to support children across the UK. We hope everyone was able to stay awake during their lessons today as we all looked ready for bed!
This week our School Council met to discuss future plans and they have decided to fundraise for ‘Save the Children’ by wearing Christmas jumpers to school on Friday 10th December. Keep an eye out for their posters! Please also make a note of these Christmas event dates (more details to follow):

We’ve had a fantastic week and hope that everyone has a great weekend!
