Despite the heat it was amazing to see the whole staff team and pupils out in the sunshine smiling, dancing, enjoying ice poles, and playing with bubbles and just being united after break today. We are so proud of our school community everyday but today was special!
We had a lovely speech given to us from our lovely Headteacher Mr penfold, which detailed what Diversity Day means to The Polygon and highlighted how important it is to accept others.
Diversity day is about celebrating the amazing diversity in our school community and celebrating all the wonderful complexities of people that make us individuals. The rainbow flag may represent the LGBTQ+ community but pride is so much more. Pride celebrates all types of diversity. All races, religions, disabilities, genders, identities and socio-economic backgrounds.
Pride is a celebration of love
Pride is a celebration of acceptance
Pride is a celebration of kindness
All people have the right to be treated equally and be respected no matter what background they come from and that is what Pride is a celebration of.
Our staff team are so proud of our pupils!
Enjoy the sunshine!
