IS YOUR CHILD LEARNING RISK WATCH?


In Canada, the leading cause of death and disability for children is preventable injuries. More children die annually from injuries than from all other childhood diseases combined.

The majority of these injuries are predictable and preventable. By teaching children how to make safe choices when faced with risk, the number of childhood injuries can be reduced significantly.
Risk Watch®: Unintentional Injuries is an injury prevention program that aims to do just that. Addressing the eight leading causes of childhood injury, Risk Watch consists of activities and lesson ideas school teachers can incorporate into their daily school lessons to teach children how to make safe decisions and prevent injuries.

Risk Watch

The program has recently been revised to make it easier for teachers to use and to make it more relevant to Canadian classrooms
