My experiances in the D.A.R.E programe

 D.A.R.E

A Brief Overview

In the first three weeks of term the senior syndicate of Muritai school participated in the D.A.R.E programe with Constable Julie. It was a really interesting and meaningful programe, where you thought about drugs, making the right choices, and what will happen if you make the wrong choice. I really enjoyed the programe, and believe is should be compulsory. 

I really enjoyed this programe being run by a police officer. Constable Julie had a lot of stories to tell us, about her job and her life. Some of the stories she told us were quite disturbing and upsetting. One of the stories i recall her telling us was a storie about a guy called Craig, who lives in Lower Hutt. He was addicted to P and was caught smoking it one day. They looked him in a cell. He ended up stripping and then he started biting himself in the arms to let the snakes he thought was inside him out. It was such an interesting storie.

In conclusion the D.A.R.E programe was really meaningful, and give the choice I would repeat it.
