Speak out Stay safe is a safeguarding programme consisting of assemblies and workshops, for children aged 5-11 years-old. It is available to all primary schools in the UK and Channel Islands. Speak out Stay Safeis an effective way to support a school's safeguarding duties, and links directly to the curriculum. We are delighted to share our refreshed primary school assemblies and resources, updated in May 2023 which includes:

With the help of our mascot Buddy, our Speak out Stay safe programme covers topics like bullying and abuse - without using any scary words or adult language. Another one of the best fun family party games there is on the market at the moment is Hasbro’s Pie Face. This board game is by far one of the most entertaining and kids will love it. All you need to supply is some whipped cream. Abuse can derail a child’s development. But it’s never too late to help a child. Child abuse and its effects are preventable. We can work together to stop abuse happening and support children who have been abused. It sounds pretty simple - but the mouth piece prevents you from forming even the most basic words properly, meaning that hilarity will ensue when you try to read statements such as: "slow down, you careless clown", and "pelicans love pollywog falafels". Child abuse is preventable – not inevitable. That is why we're here, fighting for every childhood. Part of the work we do to keep children safe is to explain to them in an interactive, age-appropriate way:

Last year, we saw Pie Face take to our shelves: where, to the horror of parents across the country, you had to turn a handle and risk getting a wet sponge to the face. The aim of the game is to try to say different phrases from the cards supplied whilst wearing a small mouthpiece that makes it near impossible to talk! Choose a card, start the timer and get your team to guess what you’re saying. Which family team will win? Speak Out will make for a great photo and leave everyone laughing. The Fizz Creations Twerk Pong has 3 gaming options; a head to head battle, a team game with more than 2 players and finally, the time trials game. This is where you’ll need a timer, pen and paper. This game is cause for some real laughs and is a super fun family party game to play with adults and little ones alike. You can also play this fun family party game by making silly faces at each other. 10) Challenge Your Family To A Game of “Twister”

Don't miss out on our free safeguarding programme helping all children identify abuse and feel empowered to speak out. It goes without saying that games are a must on Christmas day, that for some families, board games like Monopoly and Scrabble just don't make the cut any more. Whilst they're loved by many, it's never long before Granddad has fallen asleep in his armchair, and the children have lost concentration. Add the whipped cream to the hand on the board game and start turning the handles. But be careful! The hand could go off and SPLAT you in the face at any moment. The ideal family game to play if you’ve got a sweet tooth! This fun family party game I’m sure has been a classic at many of your children’s parties over the years. All you need for this to be a success is some ring doughnuts, string and a table.By February 2020 we’d reached over 90% of primary schools in the UK thanks to the hard work of our staff and volunteers 1. Our Speak out Stay safe programme was a finalist in the 'Safeguarding Award' category for the Children and Young People Now Awards 2021. So let’s get started on our 12 fun family party games that are suitable for any small or large group or age and you can start your plan for the best family get together.

Follow-up activities were fun and meaningful, provoking reflection on the content of the assemblies. We are most grateful to NSPCC for the continued use of Speak out Stay safe which is a crucial part of our curriculum. "
