Bullying Prevention Month targets high schoolers

bpm-2October is Bullying Prevention Month in the Cayman Islands. This year’s campaign slogan is “Take a Stand Against Bullying” and marks the fourth local observance.

Organised by the Family Resource Centre (FRC) of the Department of Counselling Services, the campaign seeks to educate the public about how to protect children from the effects of bullying, and unite communities by encouraging social responsibility.

A pervasive, yet sometimes hidden blight which often escalates if not addressed, bullying leaves sufferers feeling isolated, scared and traumatised. It can take on many forms and has recently broadened to include various forms of cyber bullying.

The results of the National Drug Council’s 2014 survey, which is its most recent poll on bullying in the Cayman Islands, found that 13 to 15 year olds are at the highest risk of such physical and psychological aggression.

bpm1In light of those findings, the FRC’s campaign is built around awareness-creating activities for high school students including school assembly presentations on how bullying affects individuals and the entire school community. Students (11-17 years old) are encouraged to take part in two competitions that promote an anti-bullying theme. The grand prize winner of the song contest will work with a local musician to have their song recorded and broadcast while the overall winning poster will be used in the campaign’s promotional literature.

The Family Resource Centre will also encourage a national conversation on the issue through local broadcasters and is partnering with several local businesses in sponsoring anti-bullying public service announcements. Broadcast on the run up and throughout October, the PSAs suggest ways in which students and others can get involved to stop bullying in its tracks while supporting victims.

Acting Programme Coordinator of FRC, Charmaine Miller said, “The Take a Stand Against Bullying” campaign seeks to create a culture of tolerance and acceptance of individual differences. Given the National Drug Council’s findings, we will actively be targeting teenagers to equip them with the necessary skills to stand up safely against bullying and become upstanders in their community.”

The campaign is also inviting citizens and businesses to visibly take a stand against bullying by buying “Stood Up” T-shirts. To make an impact, the FRC suggests that schools and offices organise a dress-down day on 14 October when the T-shirts are worn. Available from the FRC, the tops can also be worn at the annual Silent Witness March, organised by the Business and Professional Women’s Club on Tuesday, 18 October. The FRC is also organising a parenting session called “How to Bully-proof Your Child” 19 October to assist parents recognise and prevent bullying behaviour.

For contest details, including submission deadlines, visit [email protected]. For a schedule of the month’s bullying prevention events, visit facebook.com/familyresourcecentre or call the FRC on 949-0006.

Civil Aviation Authority of the Cayman Islands issues safety advisory on Galaxy Note 7

The Civil Aviation Authority of the Cayman Islands issued a safety advisory on transporting the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 by aircraft:

The purpose of this safety advisory is to advise air operators, passengers and crew of the risks involved in transporting the new Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphone in checked baggage or inside the cabin of an aircraft. In light of recent incidents and concerns involving the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphone, exploding or catching fire. For this reason, The Civil Aviation Authority of the Cayman Islands (CAACI) strongly advises air operators, passengers and crew of this safety risk and is recommending thatSamsung Galaxy Note 7 devices not be turned on or charged while on board the aircraft and not to be placed in checked baggage.

This advisory is the result of Samsung’s recent concerns raised about their Galaxy Note 7 device, as well as the subsequent statement from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the USA strongly advising passengers against using this device inflight, or checking it in with their baggage.

This safety advisory follows Cayman Airways warning issued last week on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. Cayman Airways (CAL) statement said, “Cayman Airways passengers may still carry the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 device in their carry-on baggage or on their person, but as of Friday, September 9, 2016, passengers were being advised during the preflight safety announcements that the device must not be switched on or charged on board. Cayman Airways is also advising passengers that this particular device is not to be stored in checked luggage.”

Cayman Drama Society

2016 is proving to be amazing around the Prospect Playhouse! We have been busy renovating the auditorium this summer and getting ready for a smashing end to 2016!

And Yes! Its election season and what greater way to lighten the mood than coming to see the very funny, Yes Minister!

September 29,30, October 1

Yes Minister is a satirical look at the early career of Jim Hacker MP; a newly appointed cabinet minister in the fictional Department of Administrative Affairs at Whitehall. Hacker goes through various struggles to formulate and enact legislation or effect departmental changes that are continually opposed by the British Civil Service in particular his Permanent Secretary, Sir Humphrey Appleby. His Principal Private Secretary Bernard Woolley, is usually caught between the two. The British comedy, written by Sir Antony Jay and Jonathan Lynn, was fist broadcast by BBC Television in the 1980s has now been adapted to the Cayman stage by Chuck and Barrie Quappe. As the Cayman Parliamentary system is based on Whitehall, any of the situations will be undeniably familiar to all that live in Cayman!

October Events at Camana Bay

Fall is here and with the harvest season comes a bounty of shopping with Shoppers’ Night Out – a one-night affair where the shops of Camana Bay mark down prices and visitors can enjoy live music, refreshments and giveaways.

You may notice the buildings in the Town Centre will light up pink from 1-27 October to honour Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There are a number ways to give back, from an Opening Ceremony celebration to the 10th Annual Pilates for Pink to special salon and spa treatments at Eclipze Hair Design & Day Spa’s 16th Annual Cut-A-Thon.

Things turn eerie when the Town Centre lights up orange to celebrate all things Halloween from 28-31 October. Families can enjoy a pumpkin carving workshop, budding chefs can make frightfully fun treats, partygoers can dance away at Oktoberfest while kids can do the same at a Halloween Glow Party and moviegoers can enjoy a Frankenstein ballet on the big screen and family-friendly movies on a giant outdoor big screen. Everyone is invited to dress in their costumes for a 5K fun run while trick-or-treaters can also mark their calendars for the always anticipated Spooktacular.

Warm regards,

Alyson Hay
