We welcomed the White Ribbon Riders to school yesterday. They travel throughout New Zealand spreading the non violence kaupapa and promoting respectful relationships. It’s an exciting initiative where riders who look rough and ride powerful bikes, talk about healthy masculinity and solutions to tackling this country’s crippling domestic violence record. Violence destroys families, sets our children on a destructive journey and affects one in three women – White Ribbon Month, and is a powerful and inspirational voyage for all involved.
