Kidsafe WA with the support of Healthway have developed a new resource the Safety in Schools Resource Kit. This resource is a school based injury prevention teaching guide that can be implemented by the classroom or specialist health teacher during the regular health lessons with students in pre-primary to year two. The Safety in Schools Resource Kit aims at increasing the knowledge, skills and attitudes of participating students towards preventing unintentional injuries on the road, at home and at play.
The resource kit includes six detailed lesson plans covering child injury prevention topics including:
Road Safety
Poison Safety
Farm Safety
Water Safety
Play Safety
Sport Safety
The lesson plans also link to the Western Australian Curriculum, Health and Physical Education learning area in the strand of Personal, Social and Community Health.
For more information about this resource please contact Anita at Anita@kidsafewa.com.au or visit the Kidsafe WA website.
