Our Pupil Leaders have consulted their own classes and have updated our Anti-bullying policy 2025. They have also put together a plan for anti-bullying week in November. Well done team.
Today we worked on teamwork and trust by playing some blindfold games in Active Bodies.
Safe Squad's final workshop helped the children understand the importance of personal safety. They learnt about peer pressure, bullying, hate crime and anti social behaviour. There were great discussions from the videos they watched.
Year 6 learnt how to save lives and keep themselves safe if they found a casualty. They thoroughly enjoyed being an active First Aider. DRABC was a fabulous acronymn for the children to remember how to get help and who to ring (999 or 112) and what to say.

Safe Squad were very informative when it came to explaining how to keep themselves safe near water and if their was on house fire.
Important messages were shared with Year 6 today about how to keep safe on line. They discussed what social media they were on, who they're chatting to, how they know whether the person is real, how many followers they have and how to keep themselves safe whilst they are online. The children's experiences were shared and it became apparent how important it is to keep themselves safe online when Safe Squad highlighted how children who are online can be groomed.
