year 2 O Odd Socks Day
Whiteboard
This year as a whole school community we again showed our opposition to bullying by joining students, parents, and teachers around the world celebrating Odd Socks Day on Thursday, the 12th of November 2020.
As a part of this day, the children in Year 2 were encouraged
All of our students know now that they should always report
to wear odd socks with special meanings for them, relating to
a bullying action against themselves or their colleagues;
their personalities and life experiences. They also listened to
they can always rely on our school staff and community as a
the song of Andy and the Odd Socks - The Kids are United -
whole.
reinforcing the belief that kids are united by their diversity. Although still very young, Year 2 acknowledged the importance of equality and stated their belief in treating all people with kindness and tolerance. They learned about these principles and promised to apply them by reacting against violent or demeaning acts in difficult moments.
All in all, the Odd Socks Day event was a fun day with some important lessons learned! Despite celebrating it online, our children were engaged and ready to take the best out of it! Well done Year 2!
