The programme is divided into three one-hour modules. If it’s a Co-Ed school, the boys and girls will participate together as this gives them the opportunity to hear each other. They are given time at the end of the session for questions.
Deals with the journey from childhood to adulthood and the changes that take place at a spiritual, intellectual, and emotional level.
Examines the pressures that children can experience at this time in their development and offers some skills to deal with them. Physical changes will be discussed, and conception, pregnancy and childbirth will be explained. At the school’s discretion, fifth class students can either stay or leave for this portion of the discussion.
The children will reflect on the morning and ask questions. They will get the opportunity to submit written questions anonymously about topics they may otherwise find difficult to discuss.
Parent talks are normally delivered in the evening before the programme. In these sessions, the programme is explained in full, and we answer any questions parents might have. Parents must consent to their child taking part in the programme.
Booking is simple and can be done over email or on the phone. The cost for the programme is €218 euro per group for primary school classes. You can book now online or email schoolsprogramme@relationshipcare.ie or phone 085 871 0967.
