Throughout the week we have had discussions about bullying and how it can make people feel. We have read lots of different books linking to anti-bullying and discussed feelings including what to do if someone if being bullied. We read the Ugly Duckling through the week and spoke about how to treat people who are different. On Friday we all went into the hall and had a joint story to celebrate Elmer turning 30 years old this week with EYFS. We spoke about how it feels to be different and what it would be like if everyone was the same. Finally, we made our own posters on being different to celebrate our differences.
Here are some quotes from the children:
“God created us different for a reason.”
“We have to tell a trusted adult if someone is being mean.”
“I love being different because that is me.”
