A number of students from Stratford College have been invited to attend Facebook's Anti-Bullying Ambassador Schools Showcase event in Facebook's European Headquarters in Dublin's Silicon Docks on Tuesday, 26th April.
Facebook say that "we have already selected 4 Irish schools (Primary and Secondary) as our Showcase Schools who have exemplified outstanding anti-bullying work since they were trained by us. At this event they will share the anti-bullying work they have been doing in their school and we will also hear from a number of our celebrity supporters on how they are taking a stand against bullying. This event is a fantastic opportunity to see how other schools are effectively tackling bullying, meet other Anti-Bullying Ambassador schools, further inspire your students and of course visit Facebook’s very cool European Headquarters!"
