STRATEGIES to combat bullying were acted out at Cranbourne Secondary College last month.
Brainstorm Productions put on a performance for the Year 9 students, addressing the different types of bullying in schools and basic strategies for students to use when dealing with bullying or harassment.
Youth worker at the school Kelly Maxwell said the students were engaged from start to finish.
“The students related to the play and it was very funny,” Ms Maxwell said.
“The performance went really well and they were able to speak the language of the students. It was fantastic.”
Ms Maxwell said the play was part of the ongoing well-being strategies in place for students.
