You Belong - By Naomi Drew
 
Come join in, come join in.
Whatever your background or
Colour of skin
You are of value, for all that you are
Your special uniqueness will carry you far
It’s not about the way you look,
Your size, or weight, or height
What matters most is what’s within
The things that aren’t in sight
It’s not about the clothes you wear
Or place that you may live
Your character defines you
-
And the kindness you give.
This world that we inhabit
Could never be the same
Without your excellent qualities,
Your presence, and your name
Take these words with you every day
And treasure your own worth
This planet changed
in wondrous ways
The moment of your birth
You are part of everything
To life’s great promise you belong
Rejoice in who you truly are
Stand up, join in
And sing your song

What is bullying?
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture

Bullying happens when there is an imbalance of power; where someone purposely and repeatedly says or does hurtful things to someone else. Bullying can occur one on one or in a group(s) of people. There are many different forms of bullying:

  • Physical bullying (using your body or objects to cause harm): includes hitting, punching, kicking, spitting or breaking someone else's belongings.
  • Verbal bullying (using words to hurt someone): includes name calling, put-downs, threats and teasing.
  • Social bullying (using your friends and relationships to hurt someone): includes spreading rumours, gossiping, excluding others from a group or making others look foolish or unintelligent. This form of bullying is most common among girls (Canadian Children's Rights Council).
  • Cyber Bullying (using technology to hurt someone by spreading gossip and/or rumours, harassing)

Today, bullying is a national epidemic causing significant concern for parents and caregivers. Approximately one in three kids are bullied in hallways, classrooms and during school related activities each year. Media reports show widespread examples of victimization suffered by kids of all ages and ability levels. More troubling – students living with autism spectrum disorder are 63 percent more likely to be recipients of bullying behavior than typically developing peers. All children, regardless of ability, deserve to learn in a safe and nurturing environment where positive relationships are cultivated. Kids have a right to feel cared for and protected in school.
