The Crew Interviews
are short pieces of video footage of crew talking about their experience volunteering
for the RNLI. This supports Citizenship and PSHE, focusing on the role of a volunteer,
and the bravery of our crew members. This is also supported within Video Corner. There will be an ongoing process
of adding new footage to these sections.
The Virtual Tour
takes a 360° look around a Severn Class lifeboat, and is a useful tool to support
learning about the RNLI in general, but also D & T and Science, when linked
to the
Build a Lifeboat activity.
Dealing with Loss
addresses the tragic reality of the danger that the sea presents. The RNLI rescues
4 young people every day, but sadly there are some people who still die every year.
This area directs both adults and young people towards some very helpful sites specialising
in the loss of a loved one or friend, and gives some general advice.
Meet a Crew Member
posts real crew member interviews about their experiences, and may help to answer
many of the questions about the RNLI that pupils have. It serves to support Citizenship/PSHE
in the same way as the
Crew Interview videos.
The Ask Us Forum deals with frequently asked
questions about the RNLI, and also allows pupils to email in other questions. This
will support study of the RNLI.
On the Adults
and Teachers section of the site, you are able to download not only lesson
plans, but also other materials to support your teaching. The bank of lesson plans are clearly
divided into Key Stages, and will be added to on an ongoing basis.
Further resources to support teaching and learning are available in the free, orderable
section, including resource packs for Citizenship at Key Stages 2 & 3.
