[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 337260, member: 1991"] Love Mrs R. I'm a bit concerned that the class teacher is unaware of this though. Why haven't other kids spoken up? This sort of stuff would be known to many of the other kids in class, even if they're not the bullies. They need to be empowered to speak up, but that monitor's attitude is probably one reason the other kids also feel afraid to support a fellow student. One important point - playground monitors should be/would be on a roster. All you have to do is say on what day it happened, and the person responsible will be easily determined. So if thank you doesn't want to tell, instead ask him which day it happened. We have a strong anti-bullying campaign happening in Sydney at the moment. There have been a series of different groups - newspapers, TV networks - using an Aussie singer, Kate Miller-Heidke, who wrote an anti-bullying song based on a true event from her own schooldays. Here is a link - it also gives a link to the song and video clip. Watch it.
