Wet Wipe Hype

1st and 2nd class did an experiment on toilet paper and baby wipes.

They put toilet paper into one jar with water and baby wipes into the other jar with water.

They put the lids on and shook the jars.

What do you think happened?

The toilet paper broke down but the baby wipes did not.

So think before you flush!!

Street Smart

StreetSmart is an exciting initiative set up by the Road Safety Authority which aims to bring issues of road safety to life for young school children. StreetSmart is designed for three distinct age groups: 4-5, 5-8 and 8-12 years. There is a combination of interactive activities available for each age group.

StreetSmart also involves a streetscape mat which invites children to carry out typical, everyday cycling or pedestrian tasks. They can dress up and adopt various roles such as a nurse, doctor, fire officer or ambulance driver. The Road Safety Authority representatives are on hand to coordinate the activities with the help of teachers at the school. It is an action packed, fun filled day that enhances the student’s knowledge of the rules of the road.
