Former Kangaroo and NRL legend, Nathan Blacklock, paid a return visit to our school recently to co-deliver a workshop to improve awareness about domestic violence.
Nathan is one of a number of high profile rugby league players supporting the NSW Government initiative, "Let's Tackle Domestic Violence."
Also delivering the workshop to secondary students was Dixie Link-Gordon of the Mudgin-Gal Aboriginal Women's Centre in Redfern and mother of Penrith Panthers player Yileen "Buddy" Gordon.
The students heard about the different forms of domestic violence, warning signs, impacts, how to get help and the possible consequences when bystanders turn a blind eye to incidents.
