Membangun Lingkungan Sekolah Sehat dan Aman Melalui Sosialisasi Kebersihan dan Anti-Bullying

Abstract

The formation of students’ character, particularly related to cleanliness and anti-bullying behavior, is a crucial aspect of basic education. Cleanliness sup- ports physical health and reflects students’ discipline and responsibility to- ward their environment. Bullying, on the other hand, is a serious problem that can hinder children’s social emotional development and reduce the qual- ity of the learning environment. This community service activity aimed to create a healthy and safe school environment through cleanliness and anti-bullying socialization for elementary school students. The activity applied a Participatory Action Research approach combined with Service Learning and involved 37 fourth grade students of SDN 22 Ampenan as active partici- pants. The implementation stages included observation, planning, interac- tive socialization, participation and simulation, evaluation, and reflection. Interactive methods were emphasized to increase student involvement and understanding. The results showed an increase in students’ knowledge and awareness of the importance of maintaining personal, mental, and environ- mental cleanliness. Students also demonstrated better understanding of bul- lying risks and prevention efforts.
