UNITS OF WORK AND ACTIVITY SHEETSThe following integrated units aim to address key injury prevention issues for children at different levels of cognitive development,within the general context of learning about farms as places and production systems. These streams primarily relate to learning outcomeswithin the Studies of Society and Environment and Health / Physical Education key learning areas for Levels 1 to 4, as variously namedwithin state-based curricula.SCHOOL ENTRY AND EARLY PRIMARY: INJURY PREVENTION ISSUES• Many key safety interventions for young children on farms, (such as securely fenced safe play areas and active supervision) need to be putin place by adults. These provide a framework for young children to act safely in accordance with their stage of development. Involving theparent body to support/reinforce classroom learning in this area is a highly recommended strategy.• A safe play area (such as a securely fenced house yard) is a place which clearly separates children from farm hazards such as dams, farmvehicles, machinery and animals. It enables children to better differentiate safe/ unsafe areas. It also provides a physical barrier to preventyounger children gaining unsupervised access to water bodies and the farm workplace.• Safe play areas need to be supported by family rules about out-of-bounds areas and active supervision.Based on the injury research, key safety rules on farms should include:• Children stay in designated “safe play areas” unless taken out and looked after by an adult• Children wear seatbelts and restraints in farm vehicles• Children do not ride on tractors, ATV’s or on the back of utes• Children always wear helmets when riding bikes, motorbikes and horsesMIDDLE AND UPPER PRIMARY: INJURY PREVENTION ISSUES• Key safety interventions remain the responsibility of adults, but children are better able to participate in and be responsible for thesafety of themselves and others.• A safe play area (such as a fenced house yard) remains an important safety measure and delineates work and play areas. Whilst olderchildren may not be confined by fences, out-of-bounds areas on the farm need to be clear and consistently reinforced by adults. Olderchildren not being directly supervised, need to tell an adult where they are going and how long they will be.• Older children engage in more recreational and work activities on farms. Injury profiles most often reflect changing recreational activitiesand roles, especially in relation to riding motorbikes (two and four wheel) and horses. Farm vehicles and machinery remain prominentcauses of death and serious injury, whilst drowning is less prominent than it is for toddlers. Peer pressure and increasing independencecan have a role to play on compliance to safety rules. Reducing hazards and designing for safety are preferred interventions.As for younger age groups, older children should continue to follow key safety rules such as:• Children stay in designated safe play areas, unless supervised by an adult• Children always wear seatbelts and restraints in farm vehicles• Children do not ride on tractors, ATV’s or on the back of utes• Children always wear helmets when riding bikes, motorbikes and horses25
