Let’s talk about bullying

We celebrate ANTI BULLYING WEEK from 15th to 19th November. This year’s theme is : ONE KIND WORD.

 Are you worried about online bullying? Not sure how to approach the topic with your child?

Papyrus have put together short bedtime stories videos to support parents and children. Watch one of the videos with your child to spark a conversation. If you are worried, please speak to your child’s teacher.

How do children talk about bullying ?

Let’s listen to the children.

This BBC animation helps children to understand that there can be many different reasons why someone may bully others, and that often it is a reaction to how they’re feeling, or to something happening in their life.
