Bonfire, Halloween and Firework Safety is an engaging safety awareness lesson that helps Key Stage 1 pupils understand the potential risks associated with bonfires, fireworks, sparklers and Halloween activities. Through discussion and practical activities, pupils learn how to make safe choices, recognise hazards and understand what to do if their clothing catches fire. This lesson has been mapped to the Northern Ireland Curriculum, supporting learning within PDMU (Personal Development and Mutual Understanding), as well as elements of Language and Literacy and Physical Education.
How To Use
