The ‘Junior’ film (below) may be utilised for P6 to P7 Primary pupils and should not be delivered to pupils out with this age range. 

The ‘Senior’ film (below) is intended for S1 to S6 Secondary pupils.  The video is a drama based on actual incidents that have occurred in Merseyside over the bonfire period.  The aim is to demonstrate numerous dangers during this time and to promote areas of concern.
