Childline Assembly

This Wednesday representatives from Childline visited the school to speak to Year 5 and 6 pupils in an assembly. They introduced their mascot, Buddy and talked to the children about what they could do if they were worried or upset about something. They explained that sometimes carrying around lots of worries is like carrying a heavy sack, and a good way to lighten the load is to talk to someone.

The children learnt that Childline was available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year and there would always be someone available to talk to about any worries, big or small.

The children also identified trusted adults that they could speak to if they had concerns.
