here are all the wonderful entries you sent into us
thank you
At Safetyshop one of our core beliefs is that teaching safety education at an early age can lead to a positive safety culture young people can carry forward into their working lives.
Young people’s safety development
A safety sign competition seemed like the perfect opportunity for us to help support young people’s development of good safety and safety practice. In Ireland secondary schools have the option to study health and safety as part of their national curriculum see http://www.hsa.ie/eng/education
Safetyshop supports IOSH national curriculum campaign
The Institute for Occupational Health and Safety (IOSH) is currently campaigning to have a similar initiative included in the UK’s national curriculum and Safetyshop fully supports this young people’s campaign.
More about the entries
We are delighted with the safety themes that developed from the competition. The best entries represented health and safety issues ranging from hand hygiene, playground safety, healthy eating to email and internet safety. The Safetyshop panel, tasked with the difficult job of picking a school sign winner, commented ‘we were captivated at how creative some designs were and how students demonstrated the importance of safety within their school environment. |
