Keeping Ourselves Safe is a child protection programme in which children and young people learn and apply a range of safety skills that they can use when interacting with others.

New Zealand Police recommends that schools use the learning activities in Keeping Ourselves Safe within a whole-school approach.

These year 9–10 resources will help students to learn:
- about the determinants of abuse;
- a range of safe practices that they can use when interacting with others;
- what they can do if they have been or are being abused;
- what happens when abuse is reported.

The resources cover eight focus areas: Identifying abuse; Recognising and avoiding risk; Knowing what to do; Getting help; Safety in cyberspace; Anger and violence; Breaking the silence on family violence; What I think, what you think. (From the website).
