Student Action Plan Against Bullying
Ready to take action to address bullying? Maybe not sure how to start? As a student, bullying is something that impacts you, your peers, and your school – whether you’re the target of bullying, a witness, or the person who bullies. Bullying can end, but that won’t happen unless students, parents, and educators work together and take action.

Everyone was made equally. For example, just because people have disabilities or other characteristics that people don't have, they don't have to be treated differently. I also care that people should take a stand and not just sit back and watch this chaos.

I care about bullying because it's not something we should do in this world. It's cruel and very disrespectful. Words really do hurt people, The world would be so much better if there wasn't bullying and cyberbullying. Reporting someone's bad behavior can go a long way to help the person who is hurting. We all can do better and help each other out and be happy and nice to each other.

When I was in JK and SK I was bullied by these girls who thought they were better than me I guess. They would make faces at me as they passed me in the class and would tell the teacher that I did stuff I didn’t do to get me in trouble. Eventually she realised what was happening and told them off, but when she left and another teacher came, they started doing it again. I left the school soon after and I barely remember it anyway after so many years, but it still stays in my heart.
