Welcome to Royal Oak Intermediate
Student Bullying Survey
What's all the fuss about?
Some people think bullying is part of growing up, that it doesn't really do any harm and in fact it helps toughen you up. They think it is something you just have to put up with or learn to sort out yourself. But is it? Bullying is a problem for many young people. In a recent survey, one in five pupils said bullying was a problem for them. One in twenty said they were bullied every day for years. So if you have a problem with bullying, you are not alone. Bullying is NOT normal behaviour. Help us stamp it out!
If you are being bullied feel free to e-mail us at school safe@royaloakint.school.nz
