Our theme this half term has been ‘Law and Order’ and we have considered what makes a good leader and why we need leaders. We have learned about the meaning of democracy and identified examples both locally and nationally. We have also explored the importance of rules. At the end of our theme we went Global and learned about pacifism, the belief that conflicts should be settled in a peaceful way. The word (but not the concept) is only a century old, being first used in 1902 at the 10th International Peace Conference. We watched a ‘Peace Day’ video from the International Peace Conference and it inspired us to make our own ‘Peace Day’ video.
