Road safety, work experience and the Fun Walk!

On Tuesday the 8th of October we had a talk on Road Safety. It was a bit scary hearing all the statistics about how many people are killed, but even more so about the amount who are injured after crashes. We were shown documentaries made about people whose lives were drastically affected by crashes, it was sad to hear families talking about loved ones who were killed. We also did a theory test! I got 33 out of 40, unfortunately I needed 2 more right to pass :(

Work experience was on again on Wednesday, it was really interesting and I felt I learned a lot.

The annual Fun Walk for anti-bullying week was on Friday. Each year group gets a colour, and each base class comes up with a dance and song about friendship or anti-bullying. TYs were yellow, first years were pink, 2nd years purple, 3rd years green, 5th years blue and 6th years black and white. Our class used the theme of exclusion through the ugly duckling, who looked and acted different to the rest of us. Eventually mother duck (or Ms. O' R, our tutor) gave out to us and we danced together to 'We're All In This Together'. The other TY classes were minions from Despicable Me and taxis. Then some of us manned the road crossings for the actual walk, after the walk we went back to the school. We got a drink and danced to some music put on by the Prefects and went home happy.
