In this Update, find more information about 'Navigating the Journey,' the resource that we are using to help us meet the demands of the curriculum.

For older students, topics such as puberty, intimate relationships, contraceptives and sexually transmissible infections feature.

RSE in years 7 and 8 focuses on respectful relationships; diverse gender and sexual identities; pubertal change; body image; intimate relationships and sexual attraction; conception and contraception; bullying and discrimination; influences of the media; communication and decision-making skills; consent; being safe online; support people and community organisations; celebrating diversity.

You will find attached some sample lessons from the programme. These will be covered in a certain order, so that we may create and maintain a safe environment in which to discuss these ideas and ākonga questions.

If you wish for your child to be removed from the class for any of these lessons, please make contact with the classroom teacher in writing. 

* Please note: These are being shared with you so that you can see some of the detail we will be covering in class. Please do not share these any further or use them for any other purpose.
