Talk Homework- Next week, we will be participating in Anti-Bullying week. Ahead of this we would like you to share with your child the definition of bullying so they can contribute to discussions with some prior knowledge. The official definition is:
Bullying is the repetitive, intentional hurting of one person or group by another person or group, where the relationship involves an imbalance of power.
It can happen face to face or online.
For our younger children we will be explaining this as an unkind action, done on purpose to another person, several times.
