This week has been one of our Living and Learning themed weeks – STAYING SAFE WEEK.
- Being Safe
We’ve been learning about what is appropriate and what is not using Rachel Brian’s book ‘Respect: Consent, Boundaries and Being in Charge of YOU’.
We’ve also thought about boundaries when negotiating about space and objects. We’ve discussed about it not always being right to keep a secret if it relates to being safe. If something doesn’t feel right, in person or online, with someone we do or don’t know, we’ve talked about how we should Start Telling Other People (STOP.)
- Health protection and prevention
We’ve been learning about safe and unsafe exposure to the sun and how to reduce the risk of sun damage including skin cancer. We’ve completed some basic First Aid training to empower us to act calmly and effectively in emergencies. We’ve had a very engaging drug education session with d:side about the effects of smoking.
- Personal safety
- The Canal and River Trust led an interactive assembly all about water safety.
Louise Crossland (our PCSO) spoke to us about how to stay safe near roads, near water and at the park.
We’ve learned about hazards that may cause harm, injury or risk around water, on the road, with food and in the home. We’ve thought of ways to reduce these risks.
Help at home by asking your child to discuss their learning this week.
