Pupil’s comments about the day –

I really enjoyed it while learning about road safety and what to do in an emergency.
I enjoyed today very much. I think my favourite part was personal safety with the police and making a 999 call. (It was role play).
I enjoyed using the remote to answer questions on the big screen because it was different to use and we learnt a lot about road safety.
I learnt about how fast a room can catch fire: in 3 minutes.
I enjoyed pretending to call 999 because you got to talk to somebody on the phone and ask for an ambulance.
