Safe Highlanders event

Safe Highlanders is an annual event that promotes community safety, health and crime prevention to pupils. 

Primary 7 pupils get their chance to experience a number of potentially hazardous situations and participate in a range of simulated practical exercises.

Pupils acquire life saving skills including first aid, fire and water safety, safety on roads and internet safety. Children are also presented with the dangers of electricity, building sites and substance misuse. 

After the event, children become more aware of personal safety. Potentially, they avoid becoming victims of crime, understand how to react to emergency situations and their chances of becoming good citizen's increases.
