Year 5 Celebrate Being Different!

In line with National Bullying Awareness week, our year 5 children have been paying particular attention to ‘What makes me, me?’

From discussing favourite fruits to individual interests, the children had a very good awareness of individuality and regularly display mutual respect for each others individuality.

On Wednesday, the children conducted a social experiment in school by wearing odd socks without explaining the reasoning behind it.

The enjoyment, laughter and novelty of wearing odd socks was great to see. However, what was more pleasing was watching the children in the playground replying to questions such as, “Why have you got odd socks on?”… With answers like,”…because I have and their different, just like you and me.”
