IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR FAMILIES - BULLYING
This week one of our Academy members has been subject to Bullying via Snapchat, and it's NOT OK.
We are currently investigating this matter. Anyone found to be in breach of any Cricket Tasmania's policy will be suspended from the program immediately. Cricket Tasmania has ZERO tolerance to Bullying.
Unfortunately, bullying is common, with around 1 in 6 Australian school students aged 7 to 17 reporting they have been bullied at least once a week.
It’s important to remember that bullying is not okay, it is not simply ‘a normal part of growing up’, and help is always available to make things better. If you are having problems with bullying, seeking support is a good way to help you to overcome the negative effects of bullying and find ways to get the bullying to stop.
If you need to speak to a Kids Helpline counsellor, call
1800 55 1800, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
