ATTENDERS and helpers from the Corbett Centre came to Merkinch Primary to meet pupils from Primary 6/7. The class was divided into two groups and the visitors gave their presentation twice. After explaining what was done at the centre to help adults with learning needs, the speakers focused on the question of bullying.
In what was an interesting and at times moving exposition of the effects of bullying - often through lack of understanding or imagination - the attenders formed a rapport with the youngsters.
