The
Queensland Homicide Victims Support Group and Matthew Stanley Foundation have
come together in partnership to deliver the anti-violence message through a one
hour face-to-face presentation “Walk away, Chill out as One Punch Can Kill”. These
organisations have worked extensively in this area to promote non-violence and
mutual respect among young people through theirinformation sessions.
On
Monday 6 June this workshop was delivered to the Year 12 students of Warwick
State High School.
The
workshop allowed students to hear directly about the impact of violent assaults
on victims and perpetrators, and encouraged students to make safe choices about
their behaviour and that of their peers.
