CHOWING down with the Parkside School head were pupils from year eight and year nine.

The year groups’ Superstars were invited to a pizza lunch by Andy Taylor in recognition of how well they had done over the past year.

The youngsters at the Cullingworth school were praised for attendance, achievement and ‘going above and beyond’.

At a previous gathering the Parkside Student Leadership Team were invited for pizza, chocolate, crisps and drinks with Mr Taylor, in recognition of their workers ambassadors for the school.

Parkside staff are currently preparing for the school’s anti-bullying week which will run from November 16 to 20.

The week’s aims include empowering children and young people to report bullying whether it is happening to them, or someone else, face-to-face or online.

Parents and carers will be asked to talk their children about bullying, and children in school will be given space to discuss issues affecting their lives.

The week will also raise awareness of the impact of bullying on children’s lives if they don’t tell anyone it’s happening or they are not given appropriate support.
