As we continue to support children to understand their world, their relationships and themselves it is important that we support you as the first educators of your children. As the children grow and change in the world today, it is also important to acknowledge the information we now have on Child Safety education. This means that children come to understand, value and experience a life that is full and inclusive of respectful and caring relationships now and into the future.

To support this we are implementing the new PDHPE syllabus which mandates teachers to take into consideration the local context students are growing up in, the strengths students bring to the classroom and school playground and how students interact with one another in an informed age appropriate way.

A Zoom meeting, Respectful Relationships,  Child Safety, Growth,  Development & Human Sexuality Education, will be held on Tuesday 19 July from 7pm-8pm.  

This meeting is for all parents - Kindergarten to Year 6.

This is a significant change in the culture of our school community. Changing culture is about schools, parents/carers and communities being on the same page and being counter-cultural to the narrative currently being displayed to our young people around relationships. 

At the meeting we will address the myths around this topic and also be informed by the facts. You will have the opportunity to to hear about the cyclical nature of skill and knowledge development across the areas of respectful relationships, child safety, child growth, development and human sexuality.

You’re invited to join the Respectful Relationships,  Child Safety, Growth,  Development & Human Sexuality Education Zoom Meeting:
