At Big Kids’ Table, we provide Christian sex education programs and resources that help schools, churches, parents & guardians, and young people navigate conversations around sex, relationships, and God with confidence.
Our program fees vary depending on the booking. You can find out more about our Christian sex education programs and Christian sex education resources via the ‘programs’ and ‘resources’ tabs in the menu of this website.
For a quick short cut:
The topic of sexual and gender diversity has been one that has ripped through the Australian and Christian landscape in recent years. It is a topic that Christian young people want to be informed about and given a safe space to discuss. As a provider of Christian sex education, we believe young people need both biblical foundations and the skills to engage thoughtfully, respectfully, and compassionately with complex cultural conversations. We want to raise a generation of Christians who step into big conversations with confidence in the Gospel.
To achieve this, within our general workshops we seek to facilitate and strengthen participants in their independent thinking and research of such topics. We provide a framework built around the heart of God, that aims to equip our audience instead of dictating a list of rights and wrongs.
We do not unpack gender and sexual diversity in our School Program workshops as it deserves to be explored with time and intention. This is why we have created the BKT Roadmap.
The BKT Roadmap is a therapeutically informed, legally sound program for Christian communities. This program does not champion a particular theological view, or “destination”, but is focused on building skills of active listening, robust conversations, critical thinking, and Biblical literacy, i.e., “how to drive” and “what to pack”. The BKT Roadmap exists to equip communities with the skills they require to have conversations in a healthy, safe, and ongoing way.

We are very aware of how sensitive the topics we discuss are and take great care to equip the communities that we are working with to continue the conversations we start. We target our content at the age and stage of our audience and work closely with our clients to ensure that the content we present is in line with their vision and values.
Furthermore, we have an incredibly experienced and qualified team. Our Co-Founder, Georgia, has over a decade of experience in parachurch and parish-based youth ministry, has worked as a chaplain in several schools, and has attended bible college. Our other Founder, Lauren, is a registered teacher and was a Wellbeing Coordinator at a Christian school for many years. She has a Bachelor of Teaching (Outreach and Community Education), a Diploma of Mental Health and a Diploma in Alcohol and Other Drugs.
Additionally, our broader team is made up of teachers, youth pastors, bible college students, social workers, and more. Everyone on the team is a committed, active Christian and all follow our child safety compliance policies.
Our experience allows us to create Christian sex education resources that are biblically grounded, developmentally appropriate, and informed by education, pastoral care, and safeguarding principles.
You can read up more on our child safety policies and our team below.
Big Kids’ Table does not represent, or affiliate, with a specific denomination. We pride ourselves on building a team from various protestant Christian backgrounds and expressions of faith. We uphold a mainstream doctrine and you can find out more below about what we believe.
While we uphold a mainstream Christian belief, we offer an explorative cultural analysis of both secular and church environments. Our workshops are designed to help participants explore what they believe and provide frameworks and discussion to do so. Participants do not need to be a Christian to benefit from our program, however we share a gospel message in our secondary workshops as we conclude and invite responses.
Why?
Because BKT at School or Church is so much more than curriculum or program. It’s a holistic discipleship opportunity.
We believe that when young people truly understand who they are, it changes everything. Identity shapes how they navigate relationships, sexuality, and the world around them.
From conversations about the “birds and the bees” to deeper discussions about relationships, intimacy, and purpose, we believe young people deserve honest, safe, and biblically grounded conversations.
When that identity is rooted in Christ, it brings confidence.
That’s why an invitation to encounter Jesus isn’t an “extra” in our student workshops because it belongs at the very heart of the conversation.
Our hope is not only that your students receive safe, informed, and empowering education about sex and relationships, but that they also encounter the love of God in deeply personal and meaningful ways.
We receive positive reviews from students and adults across the board, regardless of their faith preferences. So rest assured, while Christian in focus our programs remain accessible for all involved.
Our goal is to provide Christian sex education that invites meaningful conversations about identity, relationships, sexuality, and God’s design, while creating space for all participants to engage thoughtfully.
We believe in a whole community approach to learning and our programs are designed to be exactly that! We recommend you front-load your parent and guardian cohort by sending out the provided letter prior to hosting a Parent & Guardian workshop. Next, we work with your staff to facilitate a workshop on unpacking culture and their role as a Chistian educator within this.
As the student workshops commence, our Pastoral Care resources, included with the student workshops, are designed to ‘warm up’ and ‘cool down’ your students before the workshop by building skills and language that will assist them to engage with the workshops effectively, with a focus on student-led cultural change.
Finally, our School Program is designed as a scaffolded Scope and Sequence, and our Church Workshops are intentionally built to ensure that your young people are building skills and language as they advance through their schooling.
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all method. We will work with you to ensure that the workshops fit into your school’s learning approaches and culture.
Our approach goes beyond simply answering questions about the birds and the bees. We equip communities with ongoing language, frameworks, and confidence to have meaningful conversations about sex, relationships, and faith.
We can help! We offer comprehensive consultancy that empowers schools to integrate a strong sex and healthy relationships curriculum in their community for the first time.
Our team specialises in helping schools develop thoughtful, age-appropriate Christian sex education approaches that align with their values, community, and educational context.
From preparing your board through to equipping your staff and parent and guardian community, we work closely with you to integrate a necessary topic seamlessly into your context.
Contact us to find out more.
As our program is a whole community approach, we recommend booking as far in advance as possible! Ideally we prefer bookings no less than a term in advance. However, from time to time we are able to squeeze a community in with quick notice, so get in contact to explore things further.
Can my ministry combine with another local ministry?
Yes, absolutely! We have worked with church communities that have done just that. If numbers or budget are a difficulty for you, consider joining forces with another local ministry to double the reach, and half the program cost!
We can also offer access pricing to communities that qualify. This includes a major reduction in cost. Categories considered include demographic, location, budget, participant size, and more.
Please get in touch to explore this further.
Yes, absolutely! We have run many workshops at school camps. Get in contact to explore what this could look like for your community.
Yes, we sure do. We are passionate about making the love of Jesus known in this space all over the country! While we are based in Victoria, we frequently travel interstate.
Please get in touch to explore what this could look like.
Yes, we do. We offer online workshops for adults at a cheaper rate than in person. However, please note we do not offer online versions of our School and Church Programs for young people as we believe these conversations need to be had in person where things can be safely and successfully explored in a pastorally considered way.
We also offer a range of online Christian sex education resources and courses designed to support adults, parents, leaders, young people themselves, and whole communities wanting to continue these important conversations.
