Our SESE lessons at the moment are about some of the ways we can stay safe:  e.g. Using protective gear when doing certain activities (e.g gardening).

Other topics include: 

  1. Dangers in the Playground
  2. Hazards at Home  
  3. The Gardaí

Today we were learning about the Gardaí and the work that they do.

We also learnt that they wear high-visibility (hi-vis) jackets in their work and why it's a good idea, for all of us, to wear hi-vis clothing when walking, cycling and out at night.

As we had a set of children's hi-vis vests in our storeroom, we each got one to take home and keep.

The motto on the back of them reads,

'Be Safe, Be Seen'.
