  • The String Movement Exists to Disarm Bullying Who We Are
    THE STRING MOVEMENT EXISTS TO DISARM BULLYING WHO WE ARE MISSION STATEMENT The String Movement exists Disarm Bullying by raising awareness, building a global community and providing pathways to education and training for students, parents and teachers within local and global communities. GOVERNANCE Sarah Khiroya founded The String Movement in March 2011, after becoming increasingly concerned about the damaging impact of bullying within her local community. A year and a half after conception, The String Movement was taken on as an official project of Hillsong City Care (a church-based not-for-profit organisation working within the community). The String Movement has had a significant influence within schools and community groups both within Australia and internationally and has become a globally recognised movement to Disarm Bullying in the 21st Century. The purpose of The String Movement is to provide an inclusive framework to disarm bullying within local and global communities. WHO WE ARE “The String Movement” is a movement which exists to disarm bullying in this generation. Statistics show that on average 3 out of every 5 students in high schools are bullied. That is 2, 211,851 of Australian young people. In the lives of victims, bullying can cause: • Increased anxiety, stress, illness, withdrawal, isolation, low self esteem, lack of assertiveness, insecurity and depression • Those who are bullied are 9 x more likely to have suicidal thoughts than those who aren’t bullied • 160,000 young people stay home from school each day in Australia as a result of bullying • Young people who bully are more likely to drop out of school, abuse drugs and alcohol and engage in criminal behaviour by the age of 30 • Male bullies are more likely to batter and bash their spouses and abuse their children THE DIFFERENCE The String Movement is different to other anti – bullying campaigns, as from its foundations it is about the empowerment of young people to make a difference.

Could we have a list of such schools or school regions that are currently unserved in terms of trade training options? Mr Cook: I am happy to take it on notice. Senator O'NEILL: If possible, by electorate, just a geoshot. Mr Cook: When you say 'unserved' do you mean no children at a school are accessing a centre? Senator O'NEILL: Yes. Where there are schools that are not able to access either directly in the school or in a site created by a cluster of schools seeking the funding. Mr Cook: Happy to take that on notice. Answer Attachment A lists the schools eligible to apply for funding under Round Five (Phase One) of the Trade Training Centres in Schools Program that had not been approved for funding as at 17 December 2013. These schools may have existing trade training arrangements in place, for example through local agreements to access Trade Training Centres or by partnering with existing Registered Training Organisations.
