Mohammed is a mad-keen bowler and is desperate to join the cricket team at his new school. However, there are no available places and so he ends up playing with the girls' team, who prove to be the better side.

What are your thoughts on this episode?

This is a great episode. The boys (aged 10) love it for the cricket. How astute the students are - expressing their
disapproval for the discriminatory treatment of Mohammed and girls!
This evoked a great deal of discussion as to how attitudes have evolved as society has become more multicultural.
Some great role play situations occurred and students brainstormed strategies to deal with such bullying.
