Overview

The Solid kids solid schools project aims to reduce the levels of bullying experienced by Aboriginal school aged children in the Mid West, Murchison region of Western Australia. The website provides information for staff, students and families to support Aboriginal students who are bullied or who bully others. Aboriginal ownership is an important feature of the project and members of the Yamaji community played a vital role in providing guidance for the development of the project.

Solid kids solid schools is a collaborative study between Edith Cowan Uniersity's Child Health Promotion Research Centre, the Combined Universities Centre for Rural Health and the Telethon Institute of Child Health Research and is funded by Healthway.
