Catholic Archdiocese of Perth Child Protection Week

The Catholic Archdiocese Safeguarding Office is set to launch its 2020 Child Protection Week competition for secondary school teenagers aged 12 to 18 years. The competition invites children to create a two-minute media clip drawing on the necessity of “putting children’s needs first”. It showcases the importance of hearing the voice of children and young people on how they can feel safe and loved by promoting and acknowledging the vast amount of knowledge children and young people have on what matters to them about feeling safe, and that they should have a say in decisions that affect them.
In addition to the competition, the Safeguarding Office will also launch a new child protection storybook, written and dedicated for primary school children aged 4 to 11 years.
