Dear Parents/Carers,
Given the tragic events at the weekend and the forecasted continued colder weather as we head into the Christmas holidays, we send out the attached flier. We will be highlighting to the children the importance of staying safe around water.
It can be so tempting for children to skate on frozen lakes/canals. They may well be unaware that the ice will not be as thick as it looks and that the best way to stay SAFE around water is to stay away from the edge. We will highlight to them that If they do spot anyone in difficulty in the water, then they should not enter the water themselves, call 999 and ask for the Fire Service.
Regards,
Miss Cook
