Anti Bullying Week 2019

13th Dec 2019

 

 

Article 19

You have the right to be protected from being

hurt and mistreated, in body or mind.

 

This year's Anti-Bullying Week had the theme ‘Change Starts With Us’ and took place from Monday 11th November - Friday 15th November 2019.

Many events and lessons took place across the entire school with the aim to raise awareness that bullying is not acceptable and what measures we can take as both pupils and staff to tackle the issue! We all have a collective responsibility to stop bullying and that change starts with us!

The week culminated in an assembly led by a collaboration of the UNICEF Rights Respecting School Pupil Steering Group and Digital Leaders. The assembly gave children an opportunity to listen and learn from their peers on the various types of bullying, what pupils should do if they feel they are being bullied and what they can do to stop it. The Rights Resting Steering Group and Digital Leaders all spoke passionately and reinforced their message with two videos on Bullying.
