Safety promotion

Water safety education should start from a young age, as a related promotion was carried out at the Qing'an campus of Xudong School on June 8.

To address the youngsters' biggest concern, the promotion focused on swimming in rivers and lakes, a popular activity during summer.

Volunteers briefed the students about the various potential risks if swimming in waterways, introduced them to a variety of self-rescue methods, and encouraged them to have fun in formal swimming pools and water parks.
