- Charlie Smith 'Buries' Corporal Punishment
At the ceremony, which was dubbed the Burial of Violence', school principal Dennis Kelly placed a strap in a makeshift coffin, as students cheered with excitement at the highlight of the institution's Peace Day celebrations. There is a philosophy that corporal punishment perpetuates violence and children tend to retaliate violently when they are beaten," Mr. Kelly told The Weekly Gleaner. After the principal placed the strap in the coffin, it was then placed in a 'hearse', followed by a procession. Students and teachers marched throughout Trench Town, which has been plagued by violence for a number of years.
