DD1 is being bullied.

She has been at her new school for a month, in Recpetion. DH took DD2 for a walk as my PND is really bad today. He stood outside the playground for 15 mintues literally watching DD1 being hit, kicked and pushed in the mud. Then crying and being hit and having her hair pulled till she fell on the ground. The teacher did NOTHING. DH ended up going over to the gate and screaming at the teacher, who simply said he will look into it, he's not in charge of the playground.

WTF??? I have been seriously considering HE as she has just been having a crap time (not settling in) of it...but now. God, I'm livid. I'm going in tomorrow morning, what should I say? Who do I talk to?

DD1 had such a tough time when I was ill last year and her nursery were fantastic, F**k what do I do?

She was soooo pleased with the letters! She came running out of the classroom through her bags down and showed us, then carried them all the way home singing.

She also went up to the girls concerned after school and said bye and have a nice half term, ran back to us and said that they were all friends now.

I've had phone calls all day from all over the world asking if she is ok and what happened at school today. My mum only got 2 hours sleep and was crying when I told her what had happened, she even offered to blow up the school.

p.s aloha I will email you about the party during the week when I have pu the deposit down

great news pie.

aloha · 13/02/2004 20:53

Pie, hurrah. I would love to come. I've always fancied one of those places and never had an excuse before! Ds will be good as gold and impressed by big girls. What day will it be?
I used to live in Notting Hill BTW and still miss it sometimes...

Oh Pie, those notes made me cry too. I'm so so pleased you got such a good result and that your dd is OK. You and dh are doing a great job, remember that

So pleased to hear the little blue fairy is happy again

I think the notes are an excellent idea, and I'm glad you've sorted it out. Hope you're feeling much happier too, pie, xx

I'm so pleased you had a swift and positive response, Pie, and it sounds as though the children concerned have learned a valuable lesson.

Very glad you feel you can start trusting your dd's school again. They definitly seem to have taken things seriously. I am really pleased your dd has bounced back so well.

SoupDragon · 14/02/2004 07:58

That's a great result! They've not tried to brush it under the carpet or fob you off with excuses. Tigermoth's right, it seems you can trust the school.

I'm really glad that things have been sorted out for your dd and the letters are lovely - I'm still not sure about what the school said about supervision during playtimes - how can this have happened in the first place?

bundle · 18/02/2004 11:22

pie, those letters are so sweet, brought a tear to my eye. glad it's sorted too.

Marina · 19/02/2004 10:22

That's a good response, Pie, and what sweet letters. Thanks for posting them! Hope it's the end of the matter for your dd and they all stay friends.

Pie,

I've just came to this thread late, and read it from start to finish (well, where we are up to now). I started by getting tearful for your dd, and ending with welling up again in relief that it all appears to be resolved now!
