Anti Bullying Week

This week, Aragon has been ‘choosing respect’ in celebration of Anti-bullying Week. The children have taken part in a variety of engaging activities, all centred around promoting kindness, understanding, and respect. From making friendship bracelets to singing Aretha Franklin’s iconic R-E-S-P-E-C-T, it has been a week full of meaningful moments. Each afternoon, the class listened to a special story about respect, helping to reinforce the important messages we’ve been learning.

Learning About Bullying and Respect

Aragon’s famous Page Boyz (Mr Lillie, Mr Kennedy and Mr Hicks) also made daily appearances through virtual assemblies, demonstrating that bullying is both repetitive and intentional. These performances sparked important discussions during circle times, where students explored the damaging effects that bullying can have on others.

As a school, we’ve spent time discussing the different types of respect and reflecting on how we can show respect to others in our daily lives. “Respect is about treating everyone equally and kindly, no matter what,” said one of our Year 6 children, summarising the week’s learning.

Looking Ahead

We are excited to continue fostering a culture of respect throughout the year. This week has been a great reminder of how small acts of kindness can make a big difference, and we look forward to putting these values into action as the year continues.
