Staying Safe

If you’ve got a kid, there are some things that you can do to keep them safe at school. Firstly, ensure they know their contact details because you never know when they might need to call for help or give it to a friendly police officer. Secondly, encourage them to walk in pairs or groups – safety in numbers!

Also, teach them to trust their gut instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, they should immediately tell a teacher or trusted adult. Oh, and make sure they know the school’s emergency evacuation plan because you don’t want them wandering aimlessly in case of a fire drill. That’s a lot of responsibility, but let’s have some fun with it.
