Year One began the week thinking about all the people they could turn to if they were upset or worried about being bullied. They came up with a huge list including the school buddies and monitors. We then created a 'circle of friends' using hands. We wrote the name of someone, either inside or outside school, on each of the fingers. 

We have also considered what makes a good friend. We decided that being a good listener, being gentle and having fun together were very important. In assmebly today we recited an acrostic poem about being friends.
