What others say
Bully-Busters® was an insightful and active learning session for our
children, equipping them with some very useful skills and strategies when
dealing with others demonstrating bullying behaviors. The strategies are
now being displayed on the yard and in classrooms when necessary.
Similarly, the Parent Information Session was thought provoking, and the
statistics that 1 in 6 children are bullied at one stage or another in
their schooling is cause for us all to continue to work towards reducing
bullying from our schools and society. I recommend the program to schools
and parents.

Inside-out has become an integral part of our training Turning the Tide program at Upfield Primary over the past few years. Our children look forward to their Bully- Busters® and Tool Kit for life sessions and so do our staff. We have a population that is CLD, ( Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) and the use of puppetry and role play as well as lots of time for discussion caters well for our children's needs. The Inside Out team are wonderful presenters who are able to cater for diverse needs of our children. I would recommend them to any school.

Congratulations upon your successful "Bully-Busters®" program. I was delighted to hear of the assertiveness training skills that our young son gained during the sessions. He has subsequently used these skills in the school playground and frequently refers to the content of the program.
He was recently unperturbed by and older boy trying to take his football off him. He claims to have used the "Fogging Technique" until the older boy gave up and went away.
I have also noticed that our younger son has taken to imitating the techniques used even though he has not yet attended the program!
Your insight and empathy in providing children with these much needed life skills is I believe, essential work in our society. Thank you again for providing the opportunity for our son to be part of this cutting edge program.

Bully-Busters® for Kids is and energy charged presentation that targets the "nitty gritty" issues of bullying which students immediately recognize. Through fun filled activities students find innovative, yet straightforward approaches to deal with these issues. The Inside Out approach is fresh and punchy using humor, common sense and compassion in equal measures. Students respond with total involvement and what results is a positive change of attitude and a greater understanding of bullying issues.
