Last week, Years 5 and 6 had a visit from Northumbria Police to talk about the legal and health implications of drugs. Suzanne discussed the different types of drugs and how these can have a very negative impact on a person’s life. The children learnt about the legal consequences of taking or possessing these drugs and showed a fantastic understanding of how this could impact their future as adults. They all dealt with the discussion with amazing maturity and have gained an understanding of how to make the correct choices when it comes to drugs and vaping. Well done UKS2!
