Carbon Monoxide (CO) Awareness Initiative
Dear Parents/Carers
We are writing to let you know about a very special safety session that is coming up. We are a company called Bonanza Creative and, in collaboration with The Gas Network, we will be delivering a workshop to some classes in March called “Safety Seymour”. This interactive session uses games and drama to educate children on the dangers of carbon monoxide and how to keep themselves safe. Seymour (a superhero bear) and his safety assistant will be visiting your child’s class, on a mission to rid the world of CO poisoning but he needs help!!
There is more information about CO in the carbon monoxide booklet that you will receive on the day, or you can visit: safetyseymour.co.uk, it’s full of fun activities for your child to take part in.
We are aware that safety information can be quite alarming for children and have therefore made a great effort to package all information in a child-friendly way. That said, if your child does have any concerns about CO, please allay fears. It is highly unlikely that CO is present in your home but none the less, we must work to educate ourselves about its dangers and take precautions to keep ourselves safe, such as fitting a CO alarm.
Thank you for your time and if you have any concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in contact with your child’s school.
