Middle School (10-14 years)

Adults who work and help children in activities at schools, sport and church are required to do the right thing and follow the rules that are set out for them.

It is their job to keep us safe!

It is not ok if their behaviour breaks those rules when they are responsible for me.

It is not ok if they ask me to keep secrets.

It is not ok if their behaviour makes me worried, concerned or hurt.

It’s OK for me to say “NO”!

Let someone know.

Talk to a grown-up who makes you feel safe. This can be a parent, teacher, priest, youth leader, or you can contact your Parish Office.

Call the Kids Helpline anytime: 1800 551 800 

In an emergency, always call 000
