Help protect 1000 children from child abuse

Fikelela Aids Project & partner Think Twice held their Jerry Giraffe Sunday School Training Workshop on Saturday 22^nd February 2014 – The programme focus on Child Abuse Awareness. The ten fun filled lessons teach our children that they are Special, and how they should treat others with Kindness, Teaching them body pride and what to do when faced with potential abuse. Another strong focus is on issues of HIV/Aids. Basic facts on HIV/Aids ,how it is transmitted and how to keep him/herself safe from infections. This section aims to challenge the Stigma we face around HIV/Aids and build a generation who is able to accept those around them who are infected and affected by the Aids pandemic. The programme builds important foundations for our children’s self esteem, helping them to make Good Choices. Teachers that attended the workshop were from seven different churches.  Each of the Life skill Lessons is combined with a Bible story.  Teachers also received a resource pack with visuals to which children relate very well. Much Loved Jerry – is the Persona doll that visits throughout the ten lessons and the children look forward to seeing him every week in Sunday school.
