Diversity Day

We have been learning about DIVERSITY. Last week, we listened to the story of ‘The Box of Crayons’ during assembly and learnt how great diversity is. The story helped us to understand that although we may have some similarities, we also have some differences and together we make the world an amazing place. We ended the assembly with a beautiful poem to remind us that 'Being Different is Good' written by one of our Year 3 pupils.

Through PSHE lessons, we looked deeper into the meaning of diversity and the importance of celebrating differences. To end the week, we celebrated our similarities and differences on our Diversity Day. We were invited into school wearing clothing or bringing items in that represented our heritage, culture, hobbies and interests. We spent time sharing these with our peers and celebrated the many ways in which we are different.

Well done to all of the pupils for ‘living life in all its fullness’ by sharing what makes them special and listening to and learning from others. As always, a huge thank you to the parents and carers for their support in making this day a success.

Being Different is Good

If you’re different don’t be sad,

If you’re different, be glad,

You should always try to be you,

Let your light shine through.

Have good people all around,

Don’t let yourself fall to the ground,

You should always try to be you,

Let your light shine through.

Don’t be mean, try to be kind,

There’s nothing about you that you need to hide,

You should always try to be you,
