# Water Safety Awareness Assembly

  ![Image of Water Safety Awareness Assembly](https://files.schudio.com/st-cecilia-rc-high/images/news/IMG_0940.JPG)  19 May 2023

This week pupils have had a presentation by Lancashire Fire and Rescue on how to stay safe in and around open water. Years 10 and 11 had a 20 minute assembly and years 7, 8 and 9 had the full presentation. They learnt about why open water can be so dangerous and what they should do to stay safe. Pupils were encouraged to download the ‘What 3 Words’ app on their phone as giving emergency services exact locations can save valuable minutes in saving lives.

Here is two links for parents and guardians to watch so they are fully aware of the safety message that was watched by pupils.
