ELECTRICITY SAFETY WEEK
Students at McAuley Primary campus acknowledged Electricity Safety week. Electricity Safety week 2022 is on 5-9 September across registered primary schools within the Essential Energy network footprint.
Electricity Safety Week raises awareness of the hazards associated with electricity and teaches students how to be safe around electricity. Some resources, provided to us by Essential Energy, were developed in collaboration with the Department of Education to meet the Science and Technology and PDHPE curriculum requirements for years K - 6. The resources included an Electricity and Safety Unit Lesson Book for Stage 3 with STEM design challenge, Electricity Safety Lesson Book for K-6 and four interactive whiteboard lessons featuring activities, videos and teachers’ notes that engaged students in learning about electricity and how to be safe around it.
Many students in Years 1 and 2 enjoyed the opportunity to participate in a colouring in competition and students in Years 3 and 4 created a poster for the poster competition. We have sent all our entries away and wait anxiously for news! Thank you to Mrs Schirmer and Mrs Black for the great Science lessons.
