Anti-Bullying Week
13th – 17th November 2023
This week is Anti-bullying Week and we have been focussing on the important theme of Bullying and how to deal with any related incidents.
The children have shown us how compassionate and empathetic they are towards their friends and family.
We know that bullying is when someone acts intentionally (on purpose) to hurt another person on more than one occasion. We use the acronym STOP.

Purpose
We have learned to recognise different types of bullying such as cyber-, physical, verbal and psychological and describe the effects that unkind actions and words have on individuals.
Also, we have looked at ways we can deal with bullying issues so they can help themselves and others too.
This morning, the children were treated to a magnificent performance by the B-Tales group. Their play focussed on many aspects of bullying.
Here is what the children thought.
“We also took part in ‘Odd Socks Day’ because we are all different in many different ways.”
“This week is a special week because we learned the different ways of bullying and how to STOP it.”
“The B-Tales ‘Made a Noise’ and helped their friend who was being bullied.”
“I know I can tell my teacher and any other adult in school if I am being bullied.”
“It is important to tell someone if you see someone else being bullied.”
The children have ‘splurged’ their thoughts and ideas about our anti-bullying activities and explained what they have learned.
Although the children had lots of fun, the seriousness of the message was not lost and I was extremely proud of how maturely they tackled such issues.
