Like every year the Forbes magazine has published the ranking of the highest paid models. For the second year in a row Kendall Jenner, with his 22.5 million dollars, won the gold medal for the highest paid model of 2018. Already last year he had beaten the competition stealing the scepter to the wonderful Gisele Bündchen, on the podium for over 15 years.
Out of the podium, we find the super Gisele Bündchen, who shares the fifth position with colleague Cara Delevigne. Both this year, they earned 10 million dollars. The sisters Hadid, Gigi, and Bella receive respectively the seventh and the eighth position. The first with 9.5 million dollars earned, the second 8.5 million. Also, the Puerto Rican model Joan Smalls has received 8.5 million dollars this year.
Anti-bullying week
As you may know, the past week (the 24th to the 28th of September) was the anti-bullying week. However, in other schools or countries, the date might be different!
People throughout the school have been creating things for this exact week. We have all talked about bullying as well.
Every year there is a new anti-bullying statement/theme. This year, the statement and theme chosen is respect.
I think that the anti-bullying week is a really important cause, as it makes people think about what is right and wrong. Besides this, it makes others more aware of the bullying going on around them (luckily, bullying is not present in ISC)
Lots of kids are going home upset or even physically hurt because of bullying and this is the week that bullies stop to think “is it right? Is it kind? Is it respectful?”
Then, some of the bullyings might stop!
Overall, many other kids, teachers and I, think that an anti-bullying week is a great event that should be shared with the whole world. Not to mention, throughout all schools. We should stop bullies so that we can all be happier.
Anti-Bullying Week 2018:
The theme for Anti-Bullying Week 2018 is: ‘Choose Respect’ and the official Anti-Bullying Week runs from 12th - 16th November.
We will hold Odd Socks Day for Anti-Bullying Week again on the first day of Anti-Bullying Week (12th November).
We will be holding its first ever 'Stop Speak Support' cyberbullying day on the Thursday of Anti-Bullying Week (15th November) supported by the Royal Foundation.
A set of free teaching resources, including lesson and assembly plans and films on bullying, ideas for Odd Socks Day and Stop Speak Support resources about cyberbullying will be available in the run-up to Anti-Bullying Week.
The theme for this year's Anti-Bullying Week is to choose respect over bullying.
Following a consultation with over 800 children, teachers and members of the Anti-Bullying Alliance, it emerged that a top priority was showing that bullying is a behavior choice and that children and young people can set a positive example by opting to respect each other at school, in their homes and communities, and online.
There will also be Anti-Bullying Week School Staff Awards for those inspiring members of the school workforce who go the extra mile to support pupils and prevent bullying.
The aims of this week are to support schools and other settings to help children and young people, school staff, parents and other professionals who work with children to understand:
-
The definition of respect
-
That bullying is a behavior choice
-
That we can respectfully disagree with each other i.e. we don’t have to be best friends or always agree with each other but we do have to respect each other
-
That we all need to choose to respect each other both face to face and online.
There will also be Anti-Bullying Week School Staff Awards for those inspiring members of the school workforce who go the extra mile to support pupils and prevent bullying.
