Keeping Ourselves Safe resources for years 9–10

Keeping Ourselves Safe is a child protection programme in which children and young people learn and apply a range of safety skills that they can use when interacting with others.

New Zealand Police recommends that schools use the learning activities in Keeping Ourselves Safe within a whole-school approach.

In this year 9–10 programme students will learn:

• about the determinants of abuse
• a range of safe practices that they can use when interacting with others
• what they can do if they have been or are being abused
• what happens when abuse is reported.
