• NSPCC - Talk PANTs visit

  Tue 27 Nov 2018

  As you know, the NSPCC visited our school yesterday and delivered their Speak out. Stay safe. assembly to share information with your child about how they can keep themselves safe from harm and get help if they have any worries.

  It was a very worthwhile and empowering session for both pupils and teachers. They spoke to the children and staff about the valuable work they do across the country, and talked about how important it is for everyone in our school community to join them in their ‘fight for every childhood’.

  Talking PANTS with your children

  The NSPCC’s work in schools will help encourage conversations about staying safe – and they have a number of child-friendly materials to help you carry on the conversation afterwards. That includes ‘Talk PANTS’, a simple way for parents to help keep children safe from sexual abuse – without using scary words or even mentioning sex.

  The guide uses the rules of PANTS to teach children that their body belongs to them and them alone. You can find out more and download the free resources at nspcc.org.uk/pants

   

• NSPCC Speak Out, Stay Safe visiting school on Monday 26th November

  Fri 23 Nov 2018
  The NSPCC’s Speak out. Stay safe. programme is visiting our school to make sure our pupils
  have the knowledge and understanding they need to stay safe from abuse.
  I’m pleased to tell you that we will be working with the NSPCC, the UK’s leading children’s charity,
  who’ll be delivering their Speak out. Stay safe. programme on Monday 26th November. This is a
  nationwide programme for every primary-school-aged child in the UK and Channel Islands. With the
  help of their friendly mascot Buddy, they’ll be presenting an assembly to the children in our school as
  well as a workshop for years 5 and 6.
  "NSPCC has helped me to build the confidence to tell people about my worries and problems."
  Child’s feedback
  What is the Speak out. Stay safe. programme?
  Through child-friendly, interactive assemblies and workshops their specially trained staff and volunteers
  will give our children information about how to keep themselves safe from harm and how to get help if
  they have any worries, sensitively discussing issues like bullying and sexual abuse, without using scary
  words or adult language.
  We have studied the content of the materials and heard from other schools who have participated and
  are extremely confident that they are appropriate for primary-school-aged children. By the end of their
  visit, we’re convinced children will feel empowered – knowing how they can speak out and stay safe.
  “My daughter thought the volunteers were fantastic, really real people, very warm and friendly.”
  Sally, Prestatyn
