What Safe And Caring Schools Should Look Like
AED First Aid Course
As an act of support for the family of a student who passed away in 2012, all staff at St. Thomas More School, take a certified AED First Aid course, (Project Brock). I took the certified training August 2013.

Supervision
I am responsible for regular supervision. I am conscientious and timely at attending. While on duty I always think of the children's safety first. It is a responsibility I don't take lightly.
I also volunteer to take extra supervision in the Gym during lunch hour when I am free. It allows the Jr. and Sr. high students to practice sports in a safe environment.

Bus Supervision
In rural communities I have always had bus supervision. This is a serious matter. The safety of the child is at stake each time they get on and off the bus. It is also important to know which bus the child is riding in case there is an emergency or a child misses the bus. The beginning of the year always poses a problem, with the very young students, knowing which bus to ride. Being kind and patient always helps alleviate the students anxiety.

Classroom Programs/Activities
Various classroom programs are brought in. I have used school based Family School Liaisons Workers, (Social Workers), as a resource and who have come into the classroom to share programs. They have helped my class by implementing: Positive Choices, Friendships and There is a Volcano In My Tummy programs. ,

Kids In The Know
A program used through Calgary Catholic Schools to suppliment the religion program used in elementary classes. It is a national interactive safety education program for increasing the personal safety of children and reducing their risk of victimization online and in the real world. Designed for children, it focuses on building self-esteem through teaching critical problem-solving skills.

Canadian Centre for Child Protection, (part of the Kids In The Know), and Shaw Communications Inc. distributed Zoe and Molly Online comic books to nearly 8,000 Canadian schools free of charge. The Grade 3 class has found it a useful tool which promotes on-line safety. (
