Before the end of the day’s discussions, the focus group comprising secondary level students were able to correctly recall the Child Helpline number. Feedback All children who attended the discussions said they were happy at having been given the opportunity to participate in such a forum. Before they left, as a final task, they were asked to provide one-word descriptions of how they felt about taking part in the discussions. They were provided with various coloured pieces of paper on which to do so. These pieces of paper were then pasted onto a flip-chart so all attendees could see what others thought of the day’s activities and discussions.
