Kids Safety Program |
|
 The Kids Safety Program focuses on issues that our children face each day, such as: safety at home, in school, on the internet, and in the community, playground and cyber bullying, conflict resolution, the dangers of drugs, the myths and facts about sexual assault and the consequences of gang violence. There is an urgent need to teach preventative and life saving skills to our kids so that they know how to deal with these issues if they occur.
Reading, writing and arithmetic are no longer the only fundamentals of education; many schools have included a safety program in their curriculum in an ongoing effort to help kids cope with life’s pressures, to aid in building safer schools, and to reduce the opportunities for problems to occur.
The Olympian Safety Program provides the tools kids need to make informed decisions and deal with everyday challenges. We teach kids how to be assertive, how to project an attitude of confidence, what to do if they bully or are being bullied, how to resolve conflicts peacefully, the myths and facts about sexual assault, and simple self defense techniques.
The program is also instrumental in helping educators and parents create an environment that is safe, stimulating and supportive by motivating kids to do the right thing and encouraging appropriate behaviour.
Our intention is not to instill fear, but to provide effective and empowering safety techniques to raise kids’ awareness so that they make safe choices. Our message is delivered through a series of discussions, activities and role-plays so that they have the opportunity to practice their learning in a controlled setting.
At The Olympian Safety Program, we believe that everyone has a right to live and learn in an environment that does not impede their personal growth. Teaching awareness, prevention, respect and responsibility will foster a safe, caring and orderly environment for all.
