ECEC encouraged to join in with National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence

The National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence (NDA) supports education communities, including schools and early childhood settings to find practical and lasting solutions to bullying and violence.
The event is held in the third week of August each year, and offers an opportunity for education settings to:
- promote initiatives to prevent bullying and violence
- raise awareness of how to prevent and respond to bullying and violence
- showcase bullying and violence prevention work that happens throughout the year
- highlight steps taken to create inclusive school communities that are safe from bullying and violence
- share how they take action and empower children and young people, staff, families and the community to be part of the solution
- send a clear message that bullying and violence are not accepted within the school gates and beyond.
Getting involved
The 14th National Day of Action will be held in the third week of August. Bullying No Way! will launch the event and theme for 2024 in June.
In South Australia government schools and preschools are able to apply for funding of up to $15,000 to support projects that create safe spaces to prevent bullying and violence in education communities.
Non-government schools are encouraged to contact their sectors to explore opportunities available.
Preschools and schools are encouraged to register their participation with the Bullying No Way! campaign as a visible statement of the commitment to keeping children and young people safe from bullying.
See the Bullying. No Way! website for more information.
