This week at Park View School, our Word of the Week is RISK.

Risk is the chance that something harmful or dangerous might happen. Understanding risk helps us make safer choices, think before we act, and recognise when a situation could put us or others in danger.

This week we’re focusing on RISK, linked to our mentor time and assembly theme of water safety. With summer holidays approaching, pupils will explore how to recognise risky situations around water

and make safe choices.

They’ll look at:

• spotting unsafe water environments
• dangers such as cold-water shock and hidden currents
• how to stay safe near rivers, lakes, quarries and the coast
• what to do in an emergency
