After sessions with the Play Rangers, each class were asked to write a list of rules about using the loose play materials outside. These rules were then collaborated and a list of rules for the whole school drawn up.
Here are our new playground rules:
Get a friend to help you carry items if they are too heavy.
Carry sticks like walking sticks.
Roll heavy tree trunks and sticks.
No throwing.
Always roll tyres into spaces, never at people.
Only stack tyres/logs up to waist height.
Never put rope around any part of your body.
Wagons are for transporting objects, not people.
Tidy up when the bell rings and help move objects to the cupboard.
Look after each other.
Look after resources.
HAVE FUN!
We are using these rules outside to keep everyone safe.
