Golden Rules:
- Never become a bully !!!
- Tell a teacher if you are been bullied !!!
- If you see bullying make sure you tell an adult !!!
This year Fairlop School is having two Anti-Bullying weeks! Last week was the first week and 5R made posters, which I know every one in the class enjoyed because there was not one person who was not desperate to finish. If you did not get enough time therefore you did not finish them, then we were given time, when we should have been reading, to finish them, I loved every second of it - it was brilliant I wish I was doing it now!
On Friday we had an Anti-Bullying assembly and the children were talking an’ acting to show as well as tell the children of Fairlop why you should never be a bully, why if you see bullying happening you should always tell a teacher (or an adult ) and why if you are being bullied don’t believe what they that person or those people tell you tell an adult !!!!!
The assembly was really good - the best one I’d ever seen – and believe me I’ve been to a lot of assemblies partly because I have been in the school for six years and that was by far the best one ever!!

Lots of stalls after the parade to visit - pastries, fish & chips, ice cream and Chinese and Indian food too. Some of our parents have volunteered to help set up the stalls and cook their native foods for everyone to enjoy.
Many activities were hosted by Yr 6 students - Face Painting, Henna hand painting and Matching Cards game.
Our class wore the colours of the Nigerian flag - green and white. In Nigeria, the weather is very hot with two seasons, the rainy season and dry season and also the harmattan which brings sand from the Sahara desert.

Next week in Fairlop we are holding our annual Heritage Day.
The country our class is representing is Nigeria. We have a new student and he is from Nigeria, he has shared with us some facts about Nigeria and what life is like living there.
We need to do lots of preparation for the event, we will set up some stalls in the school hall, and parents and visitors will come in to buy some cakes and other pastries, and there are lots of other activities happening on the day. Come along and enjoy the day too ......

On Monday we went and tried Indonesia drumming. We were extremely lucky because Year 6 were due to visit but they were doing another activity that day, and we went instead!
We were split in two groups because there were 30 of us and 15 instruments. I was on the big base gong in group 1. The gongs did not have notes they had numbers, so instead of reading music we had to read the numbers.
In Christopher Columbus’ diary he wrote: “I’m going home from Indonesia, I head some weird noses - in case there's danger I’m going now”
