Graham Construction Health and Safety Visit

Two people from Graham Construction came to our school today to talk to us about staying safe around construction sites.  They told us about some different people who work in a construction site like Joiners and Plumbers. They also told us about some vehicles like bulldozers, forklift and jackhammers.  Some pupils got to dress up in safety equipment. We all now know how to keep ourselves safe.  Thank you to our visitors for their good advice.
