Learn to scream and shout Give your teachers headaches if that's what it takes State you're not the only one And what you have to say has just begun Find a comrade; start a riot Make a stand, destroy the quiet Help yourself by helping another Find the truth by going undercover Then speak out and out and out Learn to scream; learn to shout Thanks to Luke Welsh for this poem | Power of the pen tackles bullying | Young members of a Findhorn Foundation-based club have come up with an original anti-bullying weapon. Moray Art Centre's Manga Club has created the 'Manga-zine' - a new Japanese style comic-book aimed to help fight bullying. The magazine contains strips dealing with physical, psychological and online bullying. It also features a story looking at the issue from the bully's perspective. Mr Maxwell said this can be useful for victims. "If you can understand how a bully thinks it helps you understand why they do it," he said. All of the stories and artwork featured in the publication were produced by club members. "Quite a few of us used personal experiences, or ones from people close to us," said Mr Maxwell. | |
