EDUCATE, EMPOWER AND PREVENT
It is best to prepare our children for
the thorns in the path of life. As a part of life skills curriculum, in a very
pro-active and comprehensive fashion, Witty International School, Pawan Baug took
the Wittians of Grades I -V through the difference between ‘Good Touch’ and ‘Bad
Touch’ on 11th and 12th September 2017 in collaboration with Seniors of Malad
Police Station, working on ‘Police Didi Campaign’.
A brainstorming session was held by
the guest speaker, API Rupali Targe in
presence of Senior Inspector of Police, Sudhir Mahadik and ACP Suresh Shinde on the urgent need to empower our Wittians and
to report an abuse, as children often keep abuse as a secret and encourage them
to confide their problems to parents and teachers. An animated film depicting ‘Good
Touch and Bad Touch’ and various safety methods was also shown to students.
Students also learnt the child care number – 1098.
This workshop also drilled into them
what they are to do if they ever experience such sort of bad touch as it aimed
at creating awareness amongst the students about their well-being. Students
were made aware of the safety measures for self-guarding themselves against any
harassment, abuse etc. and were encouraged to remain alert and say ‘No’ in case
of danger or call for help.
The children showed active
participation in terms of interaction and giving feedback. The program
concluded in a positive note and lots of learning to take away. Witty International School thanked the Seniors of
Malad Police Station for providing their valuable time, assistance and
co-operation rendered to us. It was quiet
an insightful session which helped the Wittians for their better understanding.
