Recently, children took part in an exciting and educational event called Operation Safety, where they learned important skills to help keep themselves and others safe.
Throughout the day, local police officers spoke to the children about online safety, teaching them how to stay safe when using the internet, social media, and online games. They discussed the importance of protecting personal information and what to do if something online makes them feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
The children also learned about the effects of alcohol and how it can impact people’s behaviour, judgement, and health. These sessions helped pupils understand the importance of making safe and responsible choices as they grow older.
Another important part of the event focused on staying safe around power sources and electrical equipment. The children were taught about the dangers of electricity and how to avoid accidents both at home and outdoors.
One of the highlights of the day was learning lifesaving skills, including CPR. Pupils were shown how to respond in an emergency and practised basic CPR techniques that could one day help save a life.
Operation Safety was a fantastic opportunity for children to gain valuable knowledge in a fun and engaging way, helping them build confidence and awareness about staying safe in everyday life.
