The AgriKids™ Farm Safety Ambassador programme is an all school approach to farm safety education. It enables all primary school children to collectively engage, educate and be empowered on the topic of farm safety. Each class level is equipped with a wealth of resources to ensure your AgriKids™ Ambassador journey is age and ability appropriate.
Equipping primary school children with key tips and knowledge on farm safety through the delivery of a supported, hybrid farm safety programme. The programme satisfies the requirements for farm safety education under the SPHE programme.
A min of 3 topics per theme to be covered.
Classes up to 4th are asked to complete their ‘AgriKids Farm Safety Ambassador Workbook’. Each workbook is ready to be downloaded in the class section. Classes can also create their own workbook.
5th and 6th class pupils are to complete a class project which demonstrates their understanding of any of the core themes. Project ideas are supplied in their class section or a school can choose their own.
This can be included with any SPHE safety event ( road, internet, water, fire, etc) . Invite a series of speakers to school, organise video calls to farmers or run a sponsored farm walk where all the children can dress as a farmer.
