Keeping Safe

The Keeping Safe Child Protection Curriculum teaches all children from a young age, in an age appropriate way, to:

  • recognise abuse and tell a trusted adult about it
  • understand what is appropriate and inappropriate touching
  • understand ways of keeping themselves safe.

The South Australian developed Keeping Safe child protection curriculum is mandated in all Catholic Schools in South Australia.   The curriculum is taught from three-years-old to Year 12 within the Health and Physical Education component of the Australian curriculum and through pastoral care initiatives that focus on building resilience in children and young people.
