Everyday Safety Awareness
Keep themselves safe in everyday situations — knowing basic safety rules about roads, strangers, water, and the internet — and understanding who their trusted adults are and when to tell them something
What a learner can do afterwards
- State at least three basic safety rules and explain why each matters
- Name their trusted adults and describe when they should tell them something
- Demonstrate safe behaviour in a familiar everyday situation without being reminded
The lesson
Every day, you make choices that keep you safe. Simple rules help near roads, water, strangers, and screens.
Ben is home with his big sister. A stranger knocks and asks to come in. Ben does not open the door. He tells his sister right away.
Trusted adults are people you know well and trust. This can be a parent, teacher, or grandparent. Tell them right away if you feel unsafe, even online.
Know your rules, and tell a trusted adult if unsafe.
