The National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence has a new name—Bullying No Way: National week of action.
Bullying No Way Week, 12 to 16 August 2024, is Australia’s key bullying prevention initiative and connects schools and communities to find workable solutions to prevent bullying.
The week gives schools and supporters flexibility to plan activities that suit their schedule—whether it's spreading awareness throughout the week or focusing on an impactful day or two.
Purple is the new hero colour representing Bullying No Way: National week of action and our commitment to standing against bullying.
2024 theme
The theme for 2024 is 'Everyone belongs'.
When we all feel like we belong, bullying struggles to find a place. It's about embracing who we are, respecting everyone's differences and standing up together against unkindness.
Belonging means we all have a role in preventing bullying. We're encouraged to speak up and create a safe place where everyone feels supported and respected, and our voices are heard and valued.
Registration
Registrations are now open.
Each year, thousands of schools from government, Catholic and independent schools across Australia come together to promote inclusion, respect and belonging.
Individuals, early childhood providers, community and sporting organisations also play an important role in working with young people to find bullying prevention solutions and are invited to join as supporters.
Registered schools and supporters will receive an online toolkit containing lots of resources—including teaching and learning activities, social media and newsletter content, webinars, a podcast, 'Everyone belongs' videos and much more.
Whether you’re a parent, teacher, student or member of the broader community, we invite you to join us. Everyone has a role to play in bullying prevention.
