    The people we care about are:
    -our families.
    -each other.
    -everyone.

    We think we should care about everyone because it will make everyone happy and nobody should feel alone or left out or sad. Everyone should feel cared for and loved.

    We can care about everyone by:
    – giving to charity.
    – being there for everyone e.g. asking people to join in and listening to people.
    – helping everyone even people who aren’t your friends.

    If we have worries we should talk to:
    – our families.
    – someone we trust.
    – our teachers.
    – our friends.
    – childline.

    It is important to share our worries because other people can help you and make them go away. When we talk about them they disappear or become smaller. If you keep worries to yourself they get bigger like the bag.

    Never think your worry is silly. Any worry can be shared no matter how small or silly it seems.

    In the story, Jenny had a lo of worries and she didn’t share them so the bag of worries got bigger. She was afraid to tell people because she thought they would think she was silly. In the end, she shared her worries and they disappeared, some weren’t even worries of her own and some worries the old lady took for her.

    The children thought that they should care for their families and friends. They asked if they should care for people who make the wrong choices and Jacob S suggested that we should care for everyone because everybody makes mistakes. Tianna-Mae questioned what would happen if they and their family continued to make the wrong choices. Daisy W said that you can care for everyone by showing everybody respect and Holly responded that you should care for everyone because you don’t know what’s going on in their lives. Jacob C said that we should share our worries with friends and family and Poppy added we should share them with somebody who we trust. Amelie mentioned you can tell your teachers and dinner ladies. Jack said that it’s important to share your worries because otherwise you might be stuck with them for the rest of your life and Kya said that it may distract you when you are working. Daisy B said you should share your worries because it’s important to get it out of your brain.

    Year 4 decided that the people we care about are:

    – Family
    -Friends
    -Strangers

    Year 4 talked a lot about the worries we have and how the worries we have as children won’t always be the worries we have for the rest of our lives. We spoke about sharing our worries to of-load how we are feeling.

    We read and enjoyed the story ‘The Huge Bag of Worries’ and had a conversation about the fact that they weren’t real worries in a bag, they were actually representing how all Jenny’s worries had built up over time. We spoke about the fact that you shouldn’t take on other people’s worries although you can offer advice and try to help.

    We spoke about all the people who could help us if we are worried and spoke about how Childline can offer free advice to anyone asking.

  5. Year 1 says:

    Year 1 care about their families; Mums, Dads, brothers, sisters, grandparents, aunties and uncles. They care about their friends too. Year 1 said that it was important that we cared about everyone and we could do this by smiling at people, being kind, friendly and sharing. We talked about helping others when we give money to charity and used ‘Children in Need’ as an example.
    Year 1 loved the story ‘The Huge Bag of Worries’ and said that they talked to their mums, dads, grandparents, teachers and friends if they had a worry. They said that if you shared a worry by talking to someone the worry didn’t seem quite so bad!
    Jenny didn’t talk to anyone about her worries so her bag of worries just kept growing! She eventually shared her worries with the next door neighbour and she helped her. By sharing some of the worries they disappeared by themselves and the old lady gave the worries back to who they belonged to. She really helped jenny to feel so much better.

  7. Year 3 says:

    Year 3 care about their families and friends. They have been thinking and trying to be a good friend to everyone in their class. Over the last 2 weeks we have been getting to know our buddies in Year 2 so that we can help them if they need a helping hand. On friday we will be helping our buddies again!
    Year 3 also enjoyed the story about The Huge Bag of Worries. We also do this too, in class we have our own worry peg, we always share our worry with the teachers in class so that they can help us to feel better.

  8. Foundation says:

    The children in Foundation thought very carefully about the people that they care about, they counted how many they had and we shared the names with each other. Most children thought about their families and some thought about their friends too. Matilda said that she cared about her sister, her Mummy, her Daddy, her uncle and Madison and Poppy at school. Dylan said he cared about his Mummy, Daddy, two Nannies, Isla his sister, his new doggy Sunny and his friend Charlie T at school. Mrs Norris and I shared with the children all the names of the people in our families, the names of our friends, all of the teachers at school and of course we told the children that we cared about all of them too – that was a lot of people!
    The children then listened very carefully to the story ‘A Huge Bag of Worries’ and were very happy that Jenny shared her worries with the old lady at the end, they talked about who they could tell and it turned out it was all the people we cared about!
