The Kindergarten students of Ms Joanne Galea and Ms Janice Vella are gearing up for summer. Who does not like a dip in the sea in the the hot summer months? However, from a very early age, students must learn to take the necessary precautions.

The session kicked off by applying sunblock before going out in the sun. Students were asked to bring sun glasses, a hat or cap and a beach towel. The students then proceeded to the playing area. Beach towels were spread all over the place, an umbrella was secured in place, all had ample water to drink and all were ready to spend a “day at the beach”.

During this activity students pretended to go diving and learnt about the use of goggles and fins. They later went for a boat ride and they had to paddle themselves to safety away from a curious shark.

The session ended by having a story read to the children “The Shark in the Park”. Students really enjoyed this session, while learning how to protect themselves from the harmful rays of the sun 🙂
