Keeping Safe - Age 7-11

There are many dangers in the world and children need to know how to keep themselves safe. This PSHE quiz, written for children in KS2, is all about protecting themsleves from accidents and other dangers.

The world can be a dangerous place. Not just in your neighbourhood, where there may be busy roads or stranger dangers, but even in your own home, where there are poisons and potential falls. Taking proper precautions should help to keep you safe whether you are having a day out to the city or walking home from school.
