Sensitizing children about various issues and about good/bad touch, makes them emotionally strong and helps them to grow normally. It helps them handle “not so positive events” in life in a better way so that they do not impact their growth and personality.

Keeping this in mind, an educative session on “Good Touch and Bad Touch” was organized in Suncity School, on Tuesday, 11th of April 2023. It was conducted by the school counsellor, Dr. Ruchika Bhardwaj, to educate the students of Grades I and II about the same. The session began by explaining the meaning of safe touch, which is good and makes us feel secure, like a hug from a parent or a pat on the back by the teacher. She further discussed what unsafe touch is. It is a negative feeling which makes us uncomfortable, sad or angry. Further, a short video was shown to the children on how to identify the ‘No Touch’ areas of one’s body, understand one’s safe circle, which includes people you can trust, and how to clearly communicate with parents about any bad experience. Children were asked to make a safe circle to understand the people they can communicate with in case such an incident occurs.

It was an interactive session where the children actively participated in the discussion and pondered over the topic as per their understanding. The session gave the children an insight into their body parts, differences between good and bad touch, and how to deal with such a threat.
