Pupils use Tai Chi to beat bullying

When pupils at Hartington CE Primary School performed the "Story of Tai Chi" for parents, grandparents and friends, there was more to the presentation than just a play.

During the year 2006 as part of the school's anti-bullying initiative the youngsters have been practising this form of protection meditation. Not only that, but next February they are hoping to start an after-school community club offering Tai Chi to all ages, from children five years old through to adults.
