There have been many things that are said to be toward inclusiveness, but there are still those who feel bad when something they love is cut. This includes some who attend Norwood Primary School in Eastleigh, Hampshire.

The school has decided to cut the annual Easter service to respect the ‘diversified religious beliefs’ of those who attend the public school. This includes both the Easter Service and Easter Bonnet Parade, and they were canceled this year.

Stephanie Mander, the headteacher, said that they are doing this because the state schools ‘respect for diversity’ was important. They also said that they are trying to ‘create a more inclusive atmosphere’.

The headteacher added: “By not holding specific religious celebrations, we aim to create a more inclusive atmosphere that honours and respects the beliefs of all our children and their families.”

The school has students between the ages of 3 and 11 and it is not attached to any particular religion. The letter was shared on Facebook, and parents began commenting.

Once said that it may have been best to celebrate everything rather than nothing. Another added ‘I don’t get it personally.’

Miss Mander said: “Parents have always been given the option to not attend. The school’s always been diverse and accepting of all.

“We understand that this change may be disappointing for some, especially those who have cherished these traditions over the years.

“However, we believe that this decision aligns with our values of inclusivity and respect for diversity.”

She also said that they are looking for inclusive ways to celebrate the season in future years.
