Marton & District C E Aided Primary School

This week, the children took part in our Relationships and Sex Education lessons, as part of our RSHE curriculum. Lessons included:

Puberty: Menstruation and Wet Dreams

This follows the theme of puberty and change for pupils in Year 5 and focuses in more detail on some of the external and internal changes that happen to the human body.

Puberty: Personal Hygiene

This lesson helps pupils to recognise the importance of personal hygiene during puberty, and consider some of the questions young people may have about the physical changes.

Puberty: Emotions and Feelings

This lesson focuses in more detail on some of the emotional changes that may occur during puberty, including outlining some of the changes that may occur in relationships. It signposts pupils to where and how to get help and support.

Whilst we have endeavoured to answer as many of your children's questions as possible, they may wish to discuss the changes they will go through in further detail with you. We will continue to cover some of these issues in the next week as part of our Science lessons on the human body and life cycle.

Thank you,

Mr Myers
