Anti-Bullying Education at Ganggangtingan State Elementary School, Lamongan

Pundi Amal Peduli Kasih Foundation and BTN held the Anti-Bullying Education program on December 5, 2023 at Ganggangtingan State Elementary School, Lamongan, East Java.

A total of 108 elementary school students in 1st grade to 6th grade took part in this educational activity led by  Resha Rashtrapatiji, a storyteller and literacy activist known for adopting the concept of Edutainment (Education and Entertainment).

He discussed the topic of bullying, from its meaning down to the different types of bullying and how to prevent them. Anti-Bullying Education also aims to create a safer environment and prevent the act of bullying, while also providing in-depth understanding and practical steps for students to follow when they encounter bullying in real life.

BTN Bank Representative, Agung Adi Prasetyo, showed support for the program with his presence throughout the event led by Resha.

Sahiri, head of South Pontianak State Elementary School 03, thanked YPP for this Anti-Bullying Education activity due to its alignment with a program introduced by the government, the Child-Friendly School (SRA). These are schools that avoid subjecting students to verbal and physical abuse as a form of punishment.
