Concerns grow over bullying at Brisbane private school after tragic death of 12-year-old girl

Ella Catley-Crawford, a 12-year-old girl from Brisbane, died after being bullied online. Her life support was turned off on November 2, following a suicide attempt a week earlier. Ella had faced months of cyberbullying at Lourdes Hill College. This incident has raised concerns about the school's handling of bullying. A previous case in 2021 involved another student attempting suicide on campus. Parents are frustrated with the school's response and have called for more accountability. Ella's family has started a GoFundMe to cover funeral costs and raise awareness about bullying and social media safety. Over $133,000 has been raised in just three days.
