Anti-bullying Week 2021

 We love the theme of Anti-bullying week

15-19 November 2021.

It is something we can all do, and it is so easy!

We have a great selection of fiction and non-fiction books in our Libraries on bullying and addressing the issues of how to handle bullies.  Remember reading fiction builds empathy!
