Protecting savings for kids

    I have money in post office bonds (10 year solidarity) that is earmarked for my children's future. It is the proceeds of a redundancy and child benefit I saved when times were better. I am now a single parent on a reduced salary receiving no maintenance and i'm wondering if it is possible to ring-fence the kids' money in an account that the banks can't get at if I have to go for insolvency or approach IBRC about my mortgage. If I just put it in their credit union or post office accounts, is it considered as my assets?
