Inquiry | Risk Assessment

This activity is based around understanding the possible risks, hazards, consequences and the risks likelihood within an event.

First, we recapped what risks and hazards are. We informed that hazards are things that can cause harm to people, property or the environment. We also informed that risks are the possibility that a hazard will cause harm to people, property or the environment.

Next, we made our own safety action plan on a simple activity. We wrote down what the activity was, the class level, the number of helpers, the number of students and the location of the activity. For every 10 students, there is one helper.

After that, we gave answers to the question 'What could go wrong?', 'What could cause it to go wrong?', 'How could we prevent it?' and 'Whose responsibility is it?'.

Then, we thought about writing the emergency plan which is the process if the risk were to elevate to a more serious situation.

We found this activity challenging to come up with multiple hazards, risks and consequences. The purpose of this activity is to be able to recognise the likelihood of a risk within an activity and the consequences if that risk were to happen.
