Today the children completed the first lesson of our 5 week Kidsafe programme and met KS the monkey! 🐵 The Kidsafe programme focuses on building children’s confidence and self esteem while also equipping them with effective skills to deal with unsafe situations and helping them to make healthy choices/decisions in their lives.
Our first topic focused on the ways we already keep ourselves safe, the meaning of trust and what to do if we ever feel worried or scared. We refer to these worried feelings as ‘yukky feelings’. The children know that if they experience these feelings, it is important to tell a trusted grown up who can help them.
