Fascinating Fact:

Your body can make vitamin D from sunlight, which helps keep bones strong.

In PSHE Health Education (age 5-7), you learn how to be safe in sunny weather. This includes wearing a hat, using sunscreen with a trusted adult’s help, drinking water, and choosing shade when the sun feels hot.

  • Sunshine: Light and warmth from the Sun.
  • Sunscreen: A cream or spray that helps protect your skin from the Sun.
  • Shade: A cooler place out of direct sunlight, like under a tree or an umbrella.
How can I stay safe in the sun at school or the park?

You can wear a hat, take water with you, and play in the shade when you can. If your skin feels hot, tell a trusted adult and move somewhere cooler.

Why do we wear sunscreen?

Sunscreen helps protect your skin from getting burned by the Sun. A trusted adult can help put it on the parts of your skin that are not covered by clothes.

What should I do if I get too hot outside?

Go into the shade or indoors, have a drink of water, and rest for a little while. Tell a trusted adult straight away if you feel dizzy, sick, or very tired.
