Anti Bullying day and more...Darcy's idea....

Last Friday July 1st we held an Anti Bullying Day where children came to school in non uniform  paying £1 for this. For their £1 there were given a wristband supplied by Inspire+ supporting Ben Smith and his 401 challenge to raise money for 2 anti bullying charities. (see previous Blogs).
Joseph and Casper our Bronze Sports Ambassadors collected the monies and gave the bands out.
The Happy T Shirt epitomises the feeling we want our children to feel .

Collecting money before the children have even had a chance to get into school whislt still by their lockers!



Into class 2 for their money ...

all happy to be wearing and supporting anti bullying

brother and sister united!

and down to class 1...



In class we discussed what bullying is and the different types of bullying. We then chose to make a poster, poem, tagzedo or slogan showing our support , importance and understanding of anti bullying.







Some great work- we hope to publish some of the poems on the pupil Blog- watch that space!
We collected £85 which has been sent to Inspire+ to go towards Ben's target of £250,000.

Well done Adam for getting the most dojos this week.

Darcy's idea.

Following our work learning about Global Warming and how we are destroying our environment,Darcy went home and saw a cartoon about Dolphins getting caught in fishing nets and decided to do something about this. She designed a prototype radio that would emit Orca sounds in order to deter dolphins . She brought this into school and her peers were interested to see her idea.

another group keen to listen to Darcy



Darcy wrote a letter explaining her ideas and we sent it to Greenpeace hoping they too would like her idea.

Great Work Darcy-good to know that a lesson and a cartoon together can inspire you to do something worthwhile like this.
Looking forward to a response from Greenpeace.
