This session supports families to learn practical ways to keep children safe at home, in childcare, at school, and in the community.
Join us for a free session for families to learn simple, practical ways to help keep children safe at home, in childcare, at school, and in the community.
The session will cover how to talk with children about bodies, respect and safety, and how to get support if needed.
This workshop is welcoming, respectful and builds on the strengths, values and experiences of families and communities.
The session is delivered in partnership with Body Safety Australia, a trusted organisation that works with families, schools and communities to help children grow up safe and respected.
