Bully Zero Incursion

On Monday 2nd June, Year 3-6 students participated in an incursion from Bully Zero. The focus of the session was around identifying what bullying is and isn’t, and the choices people have when experiencing or observing these situations. We identified the impact bullying can have on different people and strategies that could be used when dealing with these situations.

A focus for the Year 5/6 presentation was around online bullying and discussing the apps that bullying is more prevalent on (like Snap Chat, Instagram, Roblox and Fortnite) We also discussed age limits for these apps and why changes to the age limits are about to occur (from age 13+ to age 16+) and the impact this might have to online bullying.

Lastly, the presenter spoke about how it only takes one person to make a difference to the outcome and if one person becomes an upstander, often others follow.
