Grade 6 Program

You Are in Charge

 

Teacher Information

Curriculum Outcomes

Bring your students on a memorable and interactive field trip that will focus on preparing them for the responsibility of staying home alone and babysitting from a Fire Safety perspective. The You Are In Charge! program at the Children’s Safety Village is delivered in partnership with local Fire Departments and instructed by Fire Prevention Officers. Our programs are based on the Ministry of Education Ontario Curriculum.

Some highlights from our the You Are In Charge! include:

  • Recognize potential fire hazards and emergency situations that could occur along with how to properly respond
  • Learn about kitchen fire safety
  • Learn about the information they need to stay safe while babysitting
  • Recognize the importance of required life safety devices
  • Play a fire-safety themed Jeopardy game. Classes participating will put their fire safety knowledge to the test. The class with the highest score at the end of the program wins a class pizza party!

The Children’s Safety Village of Brant is a charity that relies on donations from the community.

We would like to thank the Fire Services who generously work in partnership with us to facilitate our safety programming.
