π Year 2 PSHE: Learning About Personal Safety & Trusted Adults π
This week in PSHE, Year 2 took part in an important lesson all about keeping ourselves safe and understanding our personal boundaries. π§‘β¨
We talked about the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touch in a simple, ageβappropriate way, helping children to understand that their body belongs to them and that everyone has the right to feel safe and comfortable. ππ
The children learned that:
- β Some touches are kind, helpful, or part of everyday life
- β Some touches make us feel uncomfortable, confused, or worried
We discussed that if something doesn’t feel right, they have the right to say “no”, move away, and tell someone they trust. π£οΈβ
Together, we also created a list of trusted adults who can help keep us safe — at home and at school. π¨π©π§π¦π«
This included parents, carers, teachers, support staff, and other grownβups they feel comfortable talking to. π
The children showed great maturity and thoughtfulness throughout the lesson, joining in with discussions and sharing ideas about keeping themselves and others safe. π¬π€
We are very proud of how sensibly Year 2 approached this topic. ππ
They are building important life skills that will help them understand their own boundaries and know who to turn to if they ever feel unsure. π
