A full-day event held in Auckland in 2010 examined bullying, what is being done to address it and how this can be improved upon. Around 150 people heard from presenters and took part in discussions. Attendees included individuals from schools, police, media and social workers, as well as parents.

Over the last 25 years Professor Ken Rigby has been a national consultant for schools and a leading international authority in bullying and victimisation in schools.

This activity nudges tamariki/children to explore what they have in common with each other, even those they may think are very different to them.
