Puberty Awareness Workshop (The Awkward Years)

Puberty is a very challenging time for young people as their bodies, emotions and relationships start to change in multiple ways. Students can feel awkward, afraid and confused at times, while chemical and social factors combine to cause unpredictable mood swings that can affect family and peer relationships.

With many guardians lacking the confidence to talk about puberty with their pre-teen or teenage children, it sometimes falls to other adults in the young persons’ lives to provide information and support. An externally sourced puberty workshop can provide a highly effective way for teaching staff to provide that assistance without the need to get personally involved in their student’s private lives.

This comprehensive workshop aims to prepare children for the changes during puberty and discuss what to expect. Raises awareness of the social, emotional and physical changes that take place and discusses how to lead a healthy lifestyle.

Here are some shots from our session with the kids over at Sri Dasmesh International School on the 24th of February 2022
