#BEHINDYOUFriday March the 20th is the National Day of Action Against Bullying, and this year, Behind the News wants to encourage all kids to stand up for those who need it, whether in class, in the playground or online. So we've come up with the #BehindYou campaign. We're asking all schools to get involved in the #BehindYou campaign by -1) Watching our special #BehindYou story and take part in our related class activities. These activities are focused on encouraging and empowering young bystanders to discourage bullying wherever they see it. The aim is to give kids the confidence to stand up for others, and give them practical tips on how to do it safely.2) Encouraging kids to pledge to bullying victims that they will be #BehindYou.3) Posting a comment of support using the hashtag #BehindYou to the BtN website or your own Twitter, Facebook or Instagram feeds. We'd also love to see kids upload a video of themselves, their class or even their school declaring "I'm #BehindYou!"Each week in March, Behind the News will feature some of the videos we receive from kids pledging their support. So on Friday March 20th, stand up and say "I'm #BehindYou" with Behind the News.TEACHING RESOURCES INCLUDED Learning Areas -Health and Physical Education/Personal, Social and Community Health/Communicating and interacting for health and wellbeingDescribe how respect, empathy and valuing difference can positively influence relationships Years 3 and 4Health and Physical Education/Personal, Social and Community Health/Communicating and interacting for health and wellbeingPractise skills to establish and manage relationships Years 5 and 6Health and Physical Education/Personal, Social and Community Health/Contributing to healthy and active communitiesInvestigate and reflect on how valuing diversity positively influences the wellbeing of the community Year 5 and 6Health and Physical Education/Personal, Social and Community Health/ Communicating and interacting for health and wellbeingInvestigate the benefits of relationships and examine their impact on their own and others' health and wellbeing Years 7 and 8SOLAR FLIGHTA new invention is currently attempting to set a world record that could change how we travel the globe.

But is there just one, or do Australians from different areas or walks of life have slightly different ones? We take a closer look at Aussie accents and find out about one project asking for your help to study them.CLASS CLOWNSBeing called a class clown isn't usually a good thing, but for a whole heap of kids around the country, that's exactly the title they're after!
