Why the Sharks are getting involved
- Bullying is long term, on-going violence, threats of violence and antagonisation.
- People bully through lack of self esteem and self worth. Trying to 'prove' themselves.
- Positive male role models are the main influencer of a persons self esteem and self worth. Sharks, along with Brett Murray are aiming to be those positive role models.
- Knowing your self worth and value, you can dare to dream.
The program is FREE to the first 10 Sutherland Shire Schools that register in 2019, remaining schools receive an exclusive 30% discount to the program.
