Bullying! No Way

On Friday, 18 August St Peter Chanel is participating in the National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence (NDA). 

The NDA is Australia’s key bullying prevention initiative for schools and provides an opportunity to connect with students, staff and our school community to implement workable solutions to prevent bullying.

The 2023 NDA theme, Growing connections, promotes the importance of school, family and community connections in building safe and supportive learning environments where all students can belong, feel accepted and respected.

Research has shown that strong school connections and positive relationships can help to prevent bullying. When students feel a sense of belonging and connectedness at school, they are more likely to enjoy school, to trust and respect their teachers, and be concerned about and help others (Australian Education Research Organisation 2023).

At St Peter Chanel we will help grow connections by promoting inclusiveness, respect and community belonging for all students. Our students will participate in a number of activities on this day.
