Giggling at pictures of naked bodies, discomfort at explanations of condoms, fear of STDs. Many people have mixed feelings about their own sex education at school. That's a shame and it could be better. Open and honest.
Aahhhh...! shows, that relational and sex education is about much more than that one chapter in school biology textbooks. Giving and receiving education is not only important. It can also be educational, exciting and fun.
Now on display.
Family Exhibition
In this family exhibition you will learn all about the body, sexuality, gender and consent in a surprising, personal and interactive way. Decide for yourself what you discover and what you don't.
Enter the exhibit with your own LIVE book, take the Family Tickle Tour or let the cuddly Flikvlooi guide you and your young family through the exhibit.
Discovering, growing pains, celebrating
Decide what you discover and what you share with others. Skip the topics that are uncomfortable for you.
The exhibition is divided into three themes of discovery, growing pains and celebration. Discovery: learning by doing. Choose your own information. Growing pains: learning by listening. There is information on recognition and reflection. Celebrating: learning by sharing. Conversation, sharing experiences and interaction. You will find these three themes in the 3 pavilions in the exhibition.
The exhibition focuses specifically on the history of sex education in education. So much emphasis on contraceptives? Is AIDS preventable through education? Social developments largely determined what was discussed in the classroom. And what wasn't.
Education
An extensive educational program for primary and secondary schools accompanies this exhibition.

Collaboration

The exhibition informs and normalizes in a safe and inclusive way.
