Water Safety Letter

Dear Parent/Carer
During the school holidays, and in particular in hot weather, some students may be tempted to play in or around open water. It is important that students are aware of the dangers and the Fire Brigade will be visiting school tomorrow (Wednesday) to speak to students about water safety. I have also attached a leaflet from the Royal Society for Prevention of Accidents which you may wish to discuss with your son or daughter. Further details can be found at http://www.rospa.com/leisure-safety/water/advice/children-young-people/   

I am sure you are aware of the incident in the news on Sunday evening when a boy from Middleton got into difficulty in the Rochdale canal. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family as he recovers in hospital.

Mr A Bridson
