White Ribbon Day – Year 5

White Ribbon Day is a global campaign to end violence against women and girls. 

For White Ribbon Day this year, all of the children came to school wearing something white – whether that be their clothing or a small accessory. The children took part in a whole-school assembly to find out what White Ribbon Day is trying to do, and later in the day they completed some work in their classes. All pupils make a pledge:

Kind hands, kind feet, kind words to all. 

We are a no violence school. 

We respect each other. 

Each child also wrote their own personal promise on a piece of paper which we then connected to make a whole-class paper chain of promises. This will then form a whole-school promise.

We learned about which organisations can help people if they are experiencing bullying or abuse and all vowed to #speakup to #changethestory.
