Anti-Bullying Week 2017-18
Theme: Dangers of Social Media as a Medium for Bullying
This year we explored the dangers of social media – specifically Snapchat as a medium for bullying.
1. Tutor time was extended on three days – Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We supplied different clips to be shown on those days and some questions that could be used to open up discussion with the different tutor groups.
2. We also ran different competitions with the junior school.
- A slogan competition with 1st Year English classes- Winner Rory Butler
- An art competition with 2nd Years-Winner Darragh Portley
- An essay competition with 3rd Years- Winner Daniel O’DwyerAll of these will be based around Snapchat and bullying.
3. Finally school management put up a new Anti-Bullying Display Cabinet in the corridor just opposite the teacher’s entrance. Each class group got to sign their name to an Anti-Bullying promise and display it in the cabinet to show how strongly we all feel about having a bully free school.
Many thanks to all of our Anti-Bullying Team.
