Anti-bullying Week, 15-19 Nov 2021

This year's theme is 'One Kind Word', something that we can all do and put so eloquently in the Anti Bullying Alliance Manifesto below:

"Ask if someone’s OK. Say you’re sorry. Just say hey. 

In a world that can sometimes feel like it’s filled with negativity, one kind word can provide a moment of hope. It can be a turning point. It can change someone’s perspective. It can change their day. It can change the course of a conversation and break the cycle of bullying. 

Best of all, one kind word leads to another. Kindness fuels kindness. So from the playground to Parliament, and from our phones to our homes, together, our actions can fire a chain reaction that powers positivity. 

It starts with one kind word. It starts today."

EPHS students have taken part in 'odd sock day' and other activities and competitions over the week.  

The EPHS Libraries have a great collection of books that deal with bullying and help promote empathy - search Oliver or ask your Librarians for recommendations!
