ON AUG 1_Working Against Bullying Seminar
Carolyn Male MP said Dr Carr-Gregg’s Working Together Against Bullying seminars would give parents, school leaders and staff further practical and effective advice on preventing bullying.
"As a parent of school-age children myself I know how important it is for school to be a positive, safe and caring environment," Carolyn Male MP said.
"Bullying and cyber-bullying have no place in our schools and the Bligh Government is continuing to lead the campaign against these serious issues."
"These seminars will build on last year’s successful series with a focus on promoting self-esteem and resilience in students as well as providing practical strategies for dealing with bullies."
Carolyn Male MP said it was a unique opportunity for parents, teachers and school leaders.
"It is a fantastic chance for people to listen to Queensland’s anti-bullying expert Dr Michael Carr-Gregg," Carolyn Male MP said.
"Parents will be able to learn about different types of bullying, strategies for supporting children who are bullied and how to work with teachers and schools if issues arise."
"School leaders and staff will be able to discuss how to take effective action against bullying."
