Say No To Racism

By Miss Pollen, in Year 5 - Thursday, 19 October 2023

Today, Luke from Stevenage FCF, who does a range of fantastic work with us at Fairlands, delivered a workshop to Year 5 children entitled 'Say No to Racism.' The children learned about what it means to be an ally; someone who is willing to act with or for others to create equality. We talked about playing our part in helping to challenge racism and discrimination and learned about how our own behaviour can impact others in positive ways. We were also lucky enough to meet two Stevenage Borough players - Luther James-Wildin and Terence Vancooten - who talked about their own experiences and gave the opportunity for the children to ask them questions.
