In June 2023, Loxwood Primary School were invited to take part in the Anti-Bullying Ambassador training programme as part of The Diana Award.
What are we doing?
Loxwood Primary School are proud to have six trained Anti-Bullying Ambassadors who are now working with Mrs Swann and Mrs Mellors to earn badges for the school.
The Ambassadors meet once a month to measure their progress. They are currently working on the Wellbeing Badge. This is an anti-bullying campaign that encourages positive wellbeing, spreads kindness and strengthens the peer-support system in our community. They are working with our Wellbeing Ambassador team to help our children focus on their growth-mindset and positivity.
Monday 13th November marked the start of Anti-Bullying Week. We all wore Odd Socks for the day to share the important message of celebrating our differences. The Anti-Bullying Ambassadors presented an assembly to the whole-school about how they are helping our community and they launched their Kindness Competition. Have you been awarded a Kindness Heart today?

It has trained over 50,000 young people across the UK to lead on anti-bullying campaigns in their schools.
