Good Touch Bad Touch (2019)
Physical abuse is something that most parents have a hard time talking about. However, awareness is power. It is vital that we create opportunities to talk to our children about what a good touch is and what is not, like the activity that was conducted for Grade I to V. The Activity started with a briefing session by the class teachers to their respective classes. Students were made to understand the correct names of their anatomy which will help them to acquire knowledge about such issues. Students were inculcated the awareness through video and PPT. Students were empowered and motivated to say a firm ‘NO’ at situations where they feel uncomfortable by someone’s touch. Communication is key and we need to create a friendly and kind environment for the kids to come forward and discuss such issues with their known persons. The session concluded with filling of reflection sheets by the students. All-in-all the event was a successful one. The purpose of this activity was to empower and awaken the students of an issue which is sensitive in nature, therefore vital as well.
