Anti-Bullying Week is coordinated In England and Wales by the Anti-Bullying Alliance and takes place from 15th to 19th November 2021 and it has the theme One Kind Word. Kindness is more important today than it has ever been. The isolation of the last year has underlined how little acts of consideration can break down barriers and brighten the lives of the people around us. This is one of the reasons, that 'One Kind Word' was chosen as the theme of Anti-Bullying Week. Today at St Edmund's we celebrated Odd Socks Day! All the children needed to do was to wear a pair of odd socks! It's was a great way to celebrate what makes us all unique in Anti-Bullying Week! Odd Socks Day is designed to be fun! It's an opportunity to encourage people to express themselves and celebrate their individuality and what makes us all unique!

On Wednesday the children in Nursery, Reception and Year 1 had a ZooLab workshop, which provided the children with a rich variety of activities and learning experiences under the supervision and guidance of their expert ZooLab presenter. They explained how they care for different animals and how to recreate the conditions that they need to thrive. As well as practicalities such as food, shelter and exercise, children are reminded too of the role of emotion in caring for other living things that need our love, care and respect if they are to thrive.
