Bullying No Way: National Week of Action
Bullying No Way Week is returning 11–15 August 2025
Bullying No Way Week is Australia's key bullying prevention initiative for schools. It provides an opportunity for schools to create a shared understanding about bullying behaviours and share their bullying prevention policies and strategies.
The national week of action unites government, Catholic and independent schools and their communities across the country. Together, we can foster practical approaches to prevent bullying in Australian schools.
2025 Theme
The theme for 2025 is 'Be bold. Be kind. Speak up.'
It takes courage to spark change.
Bullying is everyone's responsibility. It takes a community to be brave and address bullying behaviours, within and beyond the school gate.
Students can be bold, kind and take a stand to support others being bullied. While parents and teachers are there to support children and young people learn how to behave in a positive way.
In our community and in our school, we want a place where everyone can belong, a place that celebrates everyone, and where bullying is never accepted.
This Bullying No Way Week, we're asking students, schools, families and communities to be bold and say something, be kind and support someone, and be proud to take a stand against bullying.

Premier's Debating Challenge: Roselea PS vs. Burnside PS
We recently participated in the Premier's Debating Challenge against Burnside Public School. Our team, consisting of Livia, Ava, Chloe, and Myesha, argued against the topic: "Teachers should have to participate in all school sport and exercise just like students."
The debate took place at Burnside PS, where our team presented several key points against the proposal. They argued that requiring teachers to participate in sports could lead to injuries, fatigue that might affect their teaching effectiveness, and the possibility of teachers becoming overly competitive, which could be detrimental to the student experience.
In a closely contested debate, our team was successful in their arguments and secured a win. Congratulations to Livia, Ava, Chloe, and Myesha for their hard work and achievement.
Well done, team!
