It's the table on page 17 which is relevant. However the sentences there refer to a first-time offender convicted of a single offence after a trial. Your guilty plea can get a third knocked off those sentences but the multiple offences (and the fact that the victims were minors) will push the sentencing higher.
I'd guess at a sentence of around 2½ to 3 years imprisonment, of which half will actually be spent 'inside'.
