This engaging presentation helps primary-aged children learn how to stay safe around bonfires and fireworks. It covers the Firework Safety Code, explains how to enjoy fireworks safely, and teaches children what to do if their clothes catch fire. Through discussion and practical safety messages, pupils will develop the knowledge and confidence to make safe choices during bonfire and firework celebrations. This presentation was created by Scottish FRS.
How To Use
Use this presentation as a whole-class lesson during the autumn term or in the lead-up to Bonfire Night and other firework celebrations. Work through the slides with pupils, encouraging discussion about safe behaviours around fireworks and bonfires. Use the scenarios and questions to check understanding, reinforce the Firework Safety Code, and practise the "Stop, Drop and Roll" technique if clothing catches fire. The presentation can be used alongside wider fire safety education and local safety campaigns.
