Last week was national Anti-Bullying Week!
“Bullying is when you hurt someone, physically or emotionally (including online), several times on purpose.”
We define it by using two STOP acronyms:
- Several Times On Purpose
- Start Telling Other People
One’s a definition of bullying and the other’s a solution.
Our school definition helps us understand the different types of bullying – physical (hurting our body), emotional (hurting our feelings) or cyber bullying (online).
On Anti-Bulling Day, we wore odd socks to show that we are all the same but we are all different.
Year 4 spent time discussing what makes a good friend and how to sort disagreements with our friends in a healthy way.
Help at home: ask your child how they could resolve a disagreement with a friend in a restorative way.
