Odd Socks Day Monday 16th November 2026

 

Dear Parents and Carers,

ANTI-BULLYING WEEK 16th – 20th NOVEMBER 2026

Odd Socks Day Monday 16^th November 2026

Next week is National Anti-Bullying Week and as usual, the school will be joining in with a packed programme of activities. The theme for this year is “BREAK THE SILENCE” and this will form the basis of our work. The children will be involved in a range of activities in class throughout the week to understand what bullying is and what they can do about it.

Too often, we are silent when we see bullying take place, silent about the hurt bullying causes, and silent when we hear bullying dismissed as “just banter or roasting.” Together, we can make a difference and take a stand against bullying. From the playground to our community and beyond.

We will begin the week by celebrating ODD SOCKS DAY – Monday 16^th Nov.  Odd Socks Day is designed to be fun! It’s an opportunity to encourage people to express themselves and celebrate their individuality and what makes us all unique! Children wear their normal school uniform with Odd Socks.

There is no pressure to wear the latest fashion or to buy expensive costumes.  All you have to do to take part is wear odd socks to school, it couldn’t be simpler!  So please remember to encourage your children to wear odd socks on this day, the brighter the better.

Thank you for your continued support in helping us promote kindness, respect and a school community where everyone feels safe, valued and able to speak out.

 

 

Yours sincerely

Mr Jukes

Pastoral Lead
