Progressive Agriculture Safety Days® are as fun as they are educational. These one-day events teach elementary aged children lessons that help keep them and those around them safe and healthy.
Our Safety Days operate annually as part of a school day, with support from the teachers, principal, professional presenters and volunteers. 
At a Progressive Agriculture Safety Day, participants are divided into classroom sized groups that rotate between stations where lessons outlined in the Progressive Agriculture Safety Day Topics and Activities Manual are taught. To facilitate learning, educational, age-appropriate and fun hands-on activities and demonstrations are part of each lesson.

2023 Progressive Ag Safety Day-Oct. 4/23

2023 Progressive Agriculture Safety Day

This year we held our 15th annual Progressive Agriculture Safety Day! “Best day ever!!” is what one student shouted as she moved from one farm safety presentation to the next AND sums up the energy the students brought to the Uniplex on October 4th! We had many wonderful presenters join us to share their expertise on a variety of safety topics to over 200 grade 1-4 students from Humboldt Public School and grade 1-6 students from Bruno school. Safety topics delivered included:

🔥 Fire Safety with a demonstration on how to NOT put out a grease fire with water was facilitated by Humboldt Fire Department.

♥️Youth Matter joined us to discuss youth well-being and mental wellness with the students.

🚂 CN Rail joined us to discuss rail safety and provide rides on Little Obie, which was a huge hit with the students!

⛑️ ATV/UTV safety and brain injury prevention was brought to us by the Acquired Brain Injury Education & Prevention Team

☎️ 911/Home Alone safety was delivered by Humboldt & District Ambulance – EMS
