No matter hot it is outside, you have no idea of how cold water may be.
The effect on the body of entering water 15°C & below is often underestimated.
Shock can be the precursor to drowning.
Think about this before entering water.

With many of us spending more time outdoors, it is important to be careful near bodies of water! Never underestimate the current, temperature or depth Never get into the water alone Don’t go swimming after drinking alcohol #SafeSummer Should you get into difficulty #FLOAT

Some of our nursery children had a very exciting experience this morning. @PSOSAir came to visit with their drones. We learned how they are used to find missing people as well as some important skills for us growing up. #RoadSafety #safe #STEM
Police Scotland Air Unit retweeted
We were learning about the capabilities of the drones and this image is from the thermal camera which shows anything that is warm in white (lots of warm children and staff!) and all the darker colours are colder. Such a valuable and exciting experience, thank you @PSOSAir #STEM

A huge thank you to @PSOSAir We had an amazing experience listening to the officers talk about stranger danger, road safety as well understanding what they use a drone for. We got to see it in action and was a wonderful opportunity to demonstrate how some #STEM skills are used.
