I didn't look at this TV program tonight, but should have. Some very talented counsellors working with an ordinary class of primary School kids. The bits I did see were great and touched on this topic. Anyone involved in eduction should watch it.

Kids' Business
Over a year at a central Victorian Primary School we get to know a group of typical but extraordinary 12 year olds. This is a film about kids and violence. It is also a film about children learning how to talk about their lives.
Once a week this school holds a special class where these grade 5 and 6 kids learn how to talk about their lives. Most importantly they learn how to talk to their parents about what matters to them.
For one hour, facilitator Bernadette Wright encourages them to talk candidly about their lives. They talk about relationships with their families, about bullying and about violence both at school and controversially, at home.
