Room 26: Keeping Ourselves Safe

From the Hukanui School Newsletter 17.10.13

KEEPING OURSELVES SAFE PROGRAMME

This term all classes will be involved in this programme starting in week 3. Keeping Ourselves

Safe (KOS) is a positive personal safety (child protection) programme that is taught from early

childhood through to secondary school. It aims to provide children and young people with the

confidence and skills to cope with situations that might involve abuse. It helps them keep themselves safe in their interactions with other people. It has successfully run in our school for

many years on alternate years. It will be taken by classroom teachers with support from Adrienne Clark our Police Community Officer. Classroom teachers will be sending letters home when the programme starts which will let you know what things have been discussed in class and how you can support at home. Parents who are new to this programme are welcome to attend an information session next Tuesday 22 October at 2.30 pm in the staffroom.
