Bullying No Way: National Week of Action

This year Marangaroo Primary School proudly participated in the Bullying No Way: National week of action, 11 to 15 August 2025 

The theme for this year's campaign was Be Bold. Be Kind. Speak Up.

 

We participated in Bullying No Way week with daily messages, videos and actions that focused on the importance of being bold, being kind and speaking up. We also had the opportunity to participate and/or watch the recording of Kids Helpline’s Largest Anti-bullying event online.

 

It takes a community to be brave and address bullying behaviours, within and beyond the school gate.

Students can be bold, kind and speak up to support others being bullied. While trusted adults are there to support children and young people learn how to be kind to each other and report bullying.

 

This Bullying No Way Week, we asked ourselves and others to be bold and say something, be kind and support someone and be proud to speak up against bullying.

 

Thank you to all the students, staff, caregivers and community members who supported our participation.
