Tobacco Education

Over the past three weeks P7  have taken part in a Tobacco Education Programme.

Week 1 – We learned about the dangers of smoking

Week 2 – We learned about the health risks and also the chemicals that are in cigarettes. We also learned how cigarettes are marketed.

Week 3 – We learned about the dangers of second hand smoke. We learened where we are most likely to be exposed and also how we can protect ourselves better.

The Scottish Government Tobacco Control Strategy target for 2034 is to have less than 5% of the scottish population to be smoking. They are hoping that by then it will be normal NOT to smoke.

This has been very interesting and we have learned lots! Huge thanks to Michelle, Keith and Janet for all their input.
