Reception: People Who Help Us

March 11, 2022

Reception have been learning about people who help us in our community. 

Yesterday, we were lucky enough to have a visit from PC Edwards. He told us about the vehicles which police officers use to get around and the equipment they use too.  

We were allowed to explore the different equipment such as a baton and handcuffs and he even let us try on a hat and a police jacket. PC Edwards demonstrated how the handcuffs can be used to detain someone in a pretend scenario where he arrested the teachers! 


What a perfect way to bring our topic to life!
