Playground Safety
Thanks everyone for your input into this on Wednesday, Please remember to organise times when each class/year level goes down to the play areas (including the play structure, fountain, steps, sand pit), and emphasize the points that were discussed at the meeting. Specifically:
Swings
- How to sit on ropes:
- Students sit facing back to back for older kids, holding on to ropes or
- Students sit facing each other knee to knee, holding on to the net.
- Do not push the swing from the sides – only form the back
- Show how high the swings should go (A marker will be placed on the post for highest limit-10 cm above the silver square).
- No holding onto the swing when pushing (pusher keeps feet glued to ground)
- Swing must stop before children get on/off
- No dangly legs
- 2 people at a time only
- 1 pusher only
Play structure
- No tag
- No running up slides the wrong way
- Only Years 4-5 students on the tallest apparatus
Bicycles
- No bicycles after school on track as no supervision, as some go around the track too fast (tricycles at recess time is ok)
Long Jump Pit
- Out of bounds after school
Fountain/steps area
- should not be played on at all.
The main thing to get across to the students is after school – the same rules apply. When the letter regarding active supervision is sent next week to parents, it would be good to run through the rules/expectations with them. It is the stduents’ responsibility to make sure that they follow the rules. If any year levels or classes would like a member of the CLT present, then please let us know.
