Anti-Bullying week begins on the 16th November. To mark the start of the week we are holding an odd socks day. Children are invited to come to school wearing odd socks. The purpose of this is to show that we are all different and unique, but we are all united against bullying within our school.
The theme this year for Anti-Bullying is “United Against Bullying,” The Anti-Bullying Alliance have chosen this theme because:
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.”
So make a note to wear odd socks on Monday 16th November.
