St Stephen's takes the anti-bullying pledge
St Stephen's takes the anti-bullying pledge
Monday's The Big Anti-Bullying Assembly 2020 saw us all come together with children up and down the country to share the message of kindness and standing up to bullies
Putting a stop to bullying and ensuring it has no place in our world is a message we carry through all our work at St Stephen's and one our children take up with a passion. Lisa Novell, Joint PHSE Co-ordinator, takes up the story: "When Mrs Bachour shared a Tweet for The Big Anti- Bullying Assembly 2020, I signed St Stephen’s up straight away. The assembly live streamed on Monday 28th September and every class watched it and then, following the lead of many of the famous participants (including Gareth Southgate and even Prince William!), pledged to put a stop to bullying.

* If you are being bullied, tell someone. It referred to their ‘support hand’ but at St Stephen’s we have two support hands: one for home and one for school, with both including five adults each child has identified who they could talk to if they felt worried or unsafe.

These messages are constantly and consistently delivered at St Stephen's by all members of staff in the classroom and in the playground. This has been a great way to start our school year, reinforcing such important messages. We look forward to the opportunity to explore ways to help your child stay safe online and offline in Anti-Bullying Week which takes place in the first week of November."

Taking a peek into the Year One classrooms, it was easy to see the new cohort have made the transition from Reception with the greatest of ease. It's a busy time, and the young scholars have already made an impressive start on this term's curriculum. Here are some of the highlights - inspired by their texts, 'Superkid' and 'The Way Back Home,' they are honing their character and setting description techniques; in Maths their focus is on additive and geometric reasoning and in DT they are building models of the Moormead pavilion. And, that's just for starters ... keep up the good work Year One!
