Over the past 2 weeks, our girls took part in a Girls' Safety and Self-Protection Education programme, learning valuable skills to help keep themselves safe and confident.
Throughout the day, they explored topics such as trusting their instincts, using their voice effectively, de-escalating difficult situations, understanding consent and body boundaries, identifying trusted adults, and building healthy relationships. They also learned practical self-protection strategies, including simple blocking techniques, how to break free from grabs, and what to do if someone becomes physically aggressive.
The programme focused on empowering our wÄhine with the knowledge, confidence, and skills to make safe choices, support others, and seek help when needed. We are incredibly proud of the maturity, courage, and engagement our students showed throughout the course.
