Backflips Against Bullying

Last Tuesday, Gundagai Public School hosted the team from the Backflips Against Bullying. Our students were thoroughly entertained by the parkour and acrobatic skills of the boys, but more importantly touched by their messages around the effects of bullying and what we can do to help stand up against it. Our students were actively taken through scenarios that tackled different bullying situations and were empowered to make decisions about what could be done to help in those situations. The number one message of the day was to be an up-stander not a bystander! This performance complements our Kinder to Year 6 personal health and physical education units that focus on a range of topics including bullying. It was such an awesome performance and thoroughly empowered all our students. We can’t wait to have the team at Backflips Against Bullying back again next year.
