On the first day back at school after half term, the children in Lower One had an exciting workshop with a Police Officer, PC Holford, and her police dogs Jet and Hercules as part of their Topic work on People Who Help Us.

The children learnt all about the different equipment which the police officers have to carry and were surprised by how heavy some of it was. They got try try on different parts of PC Holford's uniform, including the helmet and vest! The children also loved setting of the sirens and lights on the police car. They learnt how Police Officers protect us from harm and help us. 

The children met Hercules who is a 9 month old Labrador puppy. He is currently training to join the dog unit. They also met Jet who PC Holford described as her best friend as she would always protect her. 

Thank you to PC Holford and to her two lovely police dogs.
