Cyber-bullying
Advice for parents from the Victorian State Government
In previous newsletters I included material relating to bullying, with particular mention of Amy ‘Dolly’ Everett. The issue of bullying and our response to it says much about the type of society we are. The impact of bullying on individuals can be profound and at every opportunity we need to speak out against it. This material has been included as part of our ongoing promotion of a school environment that values respect of others and attempts to ensure our students are safe in every possible way. To this end, please find attached a publication from the Education Department in conjunction with cyber-safety expert, Susan McLean. The focus is on cyber-bullying and contains very sound advice on what parents can do in conjunction with schools to deal with issues should they arise.
