Student Protection Curriculum - ES Coffee - Wednesday 8 March in the BBT
As you are aware, the importance of educating our children to keep safe in all domains is part of our curriculum. Our counselors, together with classroom teachers, have been focusing on developing lessons and acquiring resources to educate our children about circles of trust, understanding which secrets to keep and which to share, as well as safe touch, unsafe touch and the correct anatomical names of all our body parts.
