Let's Chat Education Program - Years 4/5/6

The school has partnered with Let's Chat Education since 2016 to support our delivery of aspects of the Health curriculum, in particular growing and changing bodies. Let’s Chat delivers workshops to students in Years 4, 5 and 6 at different points in the school year. Families will be notified ahead of time regarding the timing of the workshops.

The program is comprised of the following student workshops:

Year 4 - Healthy and Safe Bodies

Students gain awareness of how their body begins to change as they grow up. Identify private and public body parts and places and become familiar with warning signs and gain tools to be safe and healthy.

Year 5- Introduction to Changing Bodies

This workshop encourages students to explore and gain confidence to chat about the physical, social, and emotional puberty changes, using correct language. Students will be supported to identify physical warning signs that help keep them safe and ways to respond to unsafe situations as well as adults they can chat to.

Year 6 - Managing Changing Bodies

Students are encouraged to consolidate information about puberty by discussing the names and functions of the reproductive system and tools to manage those physical, emotional and social changes. We give tips and advice on ways to identify physical warning signs that help keep them safe and how to respond to unsafe situations as well as adults they can chat to.

All parents and carers in Years 4, 5 and 6 are invited to an information session with a member of the Let’s Chat team to learn about the program, and how you can support your children at home as they move towards tween and teen age.
