SuperHIRO Wednesday

On Wednesday 16th August, BPPS students will be participating in special event as part of National Bullying Prevention Week.

We will join HIRO by wearing our favourite superhero outfit (or symbol) and bringing a gold coin.

MEET HIRO 

HIRO is a16-year-old young man who spends his days educating the community and protecting civilians from people who try to bring them down. He promotes kindness and wants to partner with US to stand up for those who have been bullied and bring safety, respect and harmony to all lives.   

Bullying impacts over 2 million Australians every year: whether it's young people at school, employees in the workplace or all ages online, many face the challenging impacts of becoming targets of bullying behaviours.

The National Bullying Prevention Week, held on Monday 14th August – Sunday 20th August, will serve as an important platform to raise awareness of bullying and its impact on individuals and communities. 

The week will also help Bully Zero to raise vital funds to deliver our education and support programs across Australia. We’re all a piece in the puzzle, and together, we’re united against bullying.

BPPS students will also participate in activities aimed at understanding what bullying is and how to prevent bullying in their own lives. They will actively promote kindness, safety, respect and harmony both at school and at home.

We're all looking forward to the day!
