People Who Help Us

This topic is aimed at the children in their first year in school and gives them an introduction to people who help us both at home and in our community. It introduces us to the identity and responsibilities of doctors, the ambulance service, the police, the fire service, teachers and the clergy in our local churches. The activities children get involved in through studying this unit help schools develop links with the wider community. There are also opportunities for children to learn about effective communication skills, strategies for keeping safe and how to deal with potential risk situations.
