Don't forget to check the expiry date on your sunscreen. Most sunscreens have a shelf life of 2-3 years shown on the label by a symbol of a pot with the letter M and a number - this is the number of months the sunscreen will last once it's been opened #sunsafetip from @CR_UK
It's quite warm out there in some parts of the UK today, have you been drinking enough? If not, go grab yourself a nice cold, refreshing glass of water to keep hydrated #sunsafe#keephydrated#safeinthesun#WednesdayWisdom
A fun little (or shall I say big) #SunFact for you... The sun is HUGE! You can fit over one million earths inside of it. No wonder it generates such high temperatures and light on earth #ukedchat#sunsafety#safeinthesun#outdoorlearning
Download your #OutdoorClassroomDay certificate and display it with pride! It will remind you of the importance of getting outside regularly and the children will love it :) https://t.co/e0Qlji0zwK
Also remember to register your school if you didn't do it beforehand!
It looks like the sun may have caught a few people out today. It was quite dull and chilly this morning however, the sun has certainly cleared the clouds this afternoon. That's why it's always important to keep a sunscreen handy in your bag, or in the car #sunsafetip#sunsafety
