Irish Water Safety

and Land PAWS

Land PAWS

We are learning all about Water Safety in Scoil Mhuire Junior. This programme is from Irish Water Safety and gives us guidelines on how to stay safe around water in the pool, at home, on the farm, at the beach and on our waterways.  

Our younger children in Early Start also have the opportunity to learn about Water Safety using the ‘Hold Hands’ resources.

These are also available on the Irish Water Safety Website. https://watersafety.ie/hold-hands/
