Family Planning Tasmania will be visiting our school from Monday 15 September to Wednesday 24 September to provide The Growing Up Program – a relationships, sexuality and protective behaviours program.

The Growing Up Program (GUP) is Tasmania’s leading relationships, sexuality and protective behaviours’ program for students from Kindergarten through to Year 6. 

It is facilitated by an experienced team of Family Planning Tasmania educators, and is age and developmentally appropriate, sequential, and evidence-based. 

The program is aligned to the: 

• Australian Curriculum 
• Early Years Learning Framework 
• Respectful Relationships and Consent Teaching and Learning Package 

GUP reflects the latest in sexual and reproductive health research, and aims to maximise learning outcomes, and increase positive communication between parents and carers and their child/children. 

Family Planning educators will encourage children to talk to their families and other trusted adults and consider their own family’s beliefs and values. 

Family Planning Tasmania recommends that students be provided with relationships, sexuality and protective behaviours education each year.
