This January we held our 2nd ever Friendship week.
This follows on from the great success of last year’s friendship week .
We organised a lot of whole school activities and events to promote the values of kindness and friendship both in class and on yard. Classes will also be covering some friendship and anti-bullying lessons in class. It was also a great opportunity for the school community to revisit the schools Anti-bullying policy which is on the school website.
4th class sold Amnesty International Friendship Bracelets (New rubber wristbands)
at € 2 each. All monies raised went to Amnesty International.
Altogether we raised €
School activities included a drumming workshop with Jabba JABBA JEMBE Dave,
the famous “Gotcha Card” awards and Friendship colouring competitions.
During this week, we asked each family to support the work that goes on in school by discussing the issues of bullying and friendship with your child along with the importance of positive self-esteem
.
