First Lady Launches Puberty Program for Girls | Seychelles News

First Lady Veronique Herminie just unveiled “Welcome to Puberty,” a bold new initiative teaming up with the Ministry of Education and WOSITA Foundation to empower young girls with vital puberty knowledge and emotional support. At the launch, 49 students received special puberty packs — part of a nationwide rollout targeting 600 schools. A standout moment? A teen teacher who became pregnant at 15, yet graduated, taught, and won the President’s Cup — proof that resilience thrives. Minister David Pierre reminded teens they’re unique, valued, and empowered to ask questions. The event featured student-led poetry and song, a video from author Abi Daré, and live Q&As with the First Lady — turning awkward conversations into open, supportive dialogues for every girl.
