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.

I care because bullying is an issue and it should not happen. I have never been bullied but I don't wish it on anyone.
Because I don't want other people feeling helpless, hopeless or worthless. No one deserves to feel this way. I care because everyone deserves to feel good about themselves and feel safe in schools.
I care about bullying because nobody should suffer because he is different! Everyone deserves to be happy!
I dis-like bullies, but we can make a difference! I've been bullied, and being bullied, but i still try. I help others as much as I possibly can. I love everyone, even if they are a bully, but we can change them to be better than what they look. I care because I'm not the only one who gets bullied, and I WILL help! No matter what it takes! Be confident! Stay calm! And don't look back, just walk away!!
I care because ever since I have been in school I have been bullied!!!!!
In the world, there are numerous of people who are living with us. Each of them are really important so that it is also a wrong situation when someone ignores or making fun of them. We should respect each others' appearances, personalities, talents and also there living environments.
I had a friend that I considered my best friend. Unfortunately, she overheard one of my bullies and she stopped talking with me. The same thing repeated for the next couple of years until grade 2 when one of my bullies transferred schools. There were 2, but the other bully acted a bit friendlier. I was pretty quiet with a new friend I made for 2 years, until grade 4 when I made a new friend. We were pretty close for a few months until she started threatening that she wouldn’t be my friend anymore unless I bought her candy. I told my mum about this, and she said not to be friends with her anymore. I continued being her friend the next day though, as I only had 2 friends that year, so I didn’t want to stop. Soon she introduced me to 2 of her other friends, which were my acquaintances for the rest of the year. The next year, they didn’t want to talk to me anymore for an unknown reason. Instead, they grimaced at me in the hallways, which I soon learned to ignore. Nothing much other than that happened that year. Then the next year some of the boys in my class started calling me “Virus” which I soon learned to use to my advantage and went about my way alone and at peace for the rest of the year. After that year, i transferred to a new school where no one bothered me with insults, and i made a few more friends.
