On Thursday, 27th February, a woman from the ISPCC visited the TY students in school to talk about anti-bullying and the ISPCC's Shield Campaign. Cathal White (TY) explains the insights he learned from the talk. The following week on Thursday, 6th February, the TY students sold the ISPCC Shield pins outside public places in Rathmines and Rathgar.
"We got an ISPCC person who talked about different types of bullying and her personal experiences of bullying. Sometimes you don't think it's bullying and it is. If something is said once, that's not bullying; but if it is said over time it is.
We raised approximately €117 by selling the ISPCC Shield pins when we stood outside the bank in Rathgar and some other shops in Rathmines."
