Bullying advice please

I'm a bit gutted. My not even 6 year old has already told me that a girl same age told her to go and play in the corner by herself at school. Yesterday we went to another girls party, a girl I thought was her friend and I know the parents quite well. DD said birthday girl ignored dd completely and made some of the others ignore her. I found her on her own looking really sad. The same girl was wanting her to come round to her house at the end of the Party? Wtf? I get girls can be horrible, just didn't expect it so young. I know birthday girls parents well and they would be horrified to learn of her behaviour. DD is very sensitive and also super forgiving and practically begged to go to birthday girls house after, even after the ignoring session. I'm trying to teach her that she shouldn't be a doormat and wondering if anyone has some good advice or links as she is still so young and even the other girls involved are young so they may change. Help?!

I would speak to school and see if they have noticed anything, and make them aware of what has happened. They may have some strategies they can adopt in the school environment.
I would then speak to your daughter and see what she enjoys doing and try to find a group or activity she can join to meet other children, perhaps something like brownies or a team sport where collaboration and fair play are important.
Don't panic as things change quickly at this age and it may not be an issue by half term but keep an eye on it

Thanks trying2bgd I appreciate your respo we. Sounds sensible x

Definitely tell school.
