YORKTON – Talent from Canadian Wrestling's Elite visited St. Paul's Elementary on the afternoon of April 6 to talk to students about bullying.

Wrestlers Travis Cole, 'The Headline' Shawn Martens, and Tyler Adams of the CWE spoke to a group of  students about the effects of bullying and what they can do to combat it.  

To start, Martens read to the children from a book entitled 'Bully Beans' by author Julia Cook.  The story describes the hardships of children who are terrorized by a bully at their school. Eventually the children band together to stop the bullying and they are able to live their lives in peace.

At the end of the talk, Cole asked students how many of them had been bullied to which many raised their hand.

"Stand up and say something if you're being bullied," said Martens.

"If you have the courage to stand with your friends, you can make your school and your community a better place," said Cole.  

The wrestlers then took questions from students in the audience.

One of the students asked how long it took them to become wrestlers.  

Cole replied that he has been wrestling for 12 years and trained every day for six months before getting into the ring.

"You're never done learning wrestling," said Martens, adding that he trained for a year before his first match and that he constantly strives to be the best version of himself.

"You have to train yourself as much as you possibly can," said Adams.

The wrestlers then informed the students, to applause, that they were all welcome to attend their show - to be held later in the evening - for free, as long as they were accompanied by a parent or guardian.
