Children in Need 2017
In our family groups, we have been thinking about how different people in our community help us. Take a look at our ideas…
Team Leigh thought about how doctors and nurses help us. They drew around one another and wrote down their ideas down in the body shape.
- Doctors and nurses have to be kind, helpful, calm, hardworking, clever and good at communicating.
- They have to take blood and give injections.
- Sometimes they have to give advice or give people news about their health.
- They might have to write out prescriptions.
- They have to dress wounds or help people get the right medicine.
Team Robinson thought about how important refuse collectors are in our community. They even arranged their own litter pick to become refuse collectors! Hannah (Y6) writes, ” If we didn’t have refuse collectors in our community it would be: scruffy, dirty, smelly and disgusting. The dirt would attract rats and mice and other insects. This could make us poorly and the smell of it would make us feel sick. We are lucky to have people like refuse collectors.”
Team Whinn thought about how firefighters help our community. Take a look at their ideas in the slideshow below.
