Dear boys,
At this time of year many of you will be outdoors enjoying the sunshine and perhaps enjoying our beautiful beach and waterways. This is a fantastic thing to do however there are many dangers in it. Already this summer we have heard of children loosing their lives in the water. Over the last ten years 30 children in Ireland have drowned in water. Imagine that's almost our entire class. PLEASE please be safe around water and follow the water safety rules.
Take the time to read through the booklet below. It might save your life. It might save your friend's or a sibling's life. It'll only take 10 minutes, surely it's worth the effort.
When you have read through it why not try some of the interactive games to check your knowledge.
