On Monday 15th of May, P6 attended Operation Safety at Stair Park as part of an annual education and awareness service operated by our emergency services. The boys and girls participated in workshops on a range of areas to help educate them on some dangers and risks they might face and how best to deal with them. The workshops attended were:
- Coastguard – keeping ourselves safe when rescuing someone drowning
- Ambulance – assessing the situation and recovery position
- Police – alcohol and its effects
- Fire Brigade – Dangers in the home
- Police – Vandalism
- Scottish Power – Electricity and its dangers
- Police – Social media safety
- Police – drugs
The children developed a deeper awareness of the potential risks and discussed strategies to help them cope sensibly with them.
