My children are in year 4 and 5 . One has judt turned 10 the other coming up 9. They are small for their age in height and frame.

So we were in the park. I was sitting at the eating area and the boys went off to play. They were not far but I couldn't see them because of the angle. A short while after they came back to me sobbing. Telling me older boys from the local secondary school. Had been slamming them on the floor. Pulling them around hitting them and stopping the leaving the play area . As ds was telling me 2 boys from the same school came up to me and Comfirned to me what my 2 were saying . They gave me the boys names and form group.

I have phoned the school. And I'm waiting for a call back. But im really thinking they probably won't do anything. The school is in a rough area and i just feel nothing will be done.

I know a mum who's child gos to the school she knows the boys and she said they are trouble makers.

My boys don't have any marks on them. But they are really shaken up and keep crying. Poor ds keeps saying his legs are shakey when he walks. I think that's due to the upset.

Sounds awful for your poor boys. Glad police taking it seriously. It’s an assault and those other boys have committed a crime.

I would insist any CCTV is pulled as soon as possible. You also had a witness - I think you said you had the name. Obviously both of your boys can speak too. Your boys need to know you are doing all you can for them.

I would keep the pressure on the head to ensure a follow up. What happened is totally unacceptable and your child could have been very badly hurt.

You must keep an eye on your kids in a play area for this reason.
