Wear your Scarf to School Day - 9th February 2024
About Wear Your Scarf to School Week
Our annual Wear Your Scarf to School day supports Children's Mental Health Week which is 5-11th Feb in 2024.
We are asking for all children to wear a scarf to school on Friday in which we will be celebrating all the work that will be taking place in school.
We will be wearing scarfs because:
We are taking time to think about whether anyone's choice of scarf says something special about them and the ways in which different scarves reflect our SCARF values.
- SAFETY - some scarves will be warm and comforting, helping to keep someone snug and safe in very cold weather!
- CARING - some scarves might have been a present from a special person; they'll help make someone feel cared for. Wearing a scarf as part of religious faith can also help someone to feel cared for.
- ACHIEVEMENT - some scarves might be part of a club, perhaps a sports team. These are waved when a club achieves (e.g. when a football team scores a goal!) They also show when someone belongs to something.
- RESILIENCE - a football team's scarf can also help someone to remember that they can still support a team even if it's not doing well; they can show resilience when bouncing back from defeat or disappointment.
- FRIENDSHIP - maybe some scarves were a gift from a friend and this makes them extra special.
You can wear whatever scarf you like on Friday and we look forward to hearing why you are wearing that scarf!!
