Kia Kaha - say No to Bullying


During the last three days we were lucky enough to have Constable Louise talk to us about bullying. On the first day we learnt about all the different types of bullying that can happen to you and ways you can deal with it.
The main message here is if you’re getting bullied don’t keep it in, tell someone you trust.
On day two we learnt about cyber bullying. We think cyber bullying is the worst type of bullying because of what people do to themselves if they are in that situation. Constable Louise said that the most common age to get cyber bullied is when you are in your teen years and usually if you are a girl. She asked us who had a Facebook page why you may ask because to get a Facebook page is 13.quite a number of people in our class have Facebook pages but they are only 11  and 12 so this means they have lied about their age. The highest age faker in our class is 21 years old.
On day three we learnt about stereo typing. Stereo typing is when you judge someone on how they look and not there personality. You may not realise how often people do this and it can make people feel very uncomfortable.
We have learnt so much over the past few days so thank you very much Constable Louise.
Jordan and Kirsty
