Odd Socks Day – Anti-bullying Week

Our school councillors have been working incredibly hard to organise anti-bullying week. They made posters and displayed them around the school. They spread the word about ‘Odd Socks Day’ and were able to explain that wearing odd socks represented differences within our school. They prepared a whole presentation all about anti bullying and presented it to their classes (without any teacher input) and they also thought of activities for each class to carry out. They have been super confident, sensible and great role models.
