Like many activities that formed part of the National Day Against Bullying and Violence, the Thomas Carr pledge was a student driven concept.
“They wanted to do something visual that would make a strong statement about the fact that tackling bullying and violence is something that everyone can play a part in,” student wellbeing leader Susan Ward explained.
College Principal Dr Andrew Watson said the school is regularly working towards its goal of creating a zero-bullying environment.
“The National Day of Action is a great reminder of this and reinforces the work we are doing all year round in embedding social and emotional learning into the curriculum, and creating a positive school culture that promotes values such as caring, respect and acceptance of others.”
Catholic school NDA activities also promoted pastoral care initiatives, promoting social and emotional awareness, cross age peer buddying, and teacher development in responding to bullying incidents.
