Today Greater Manchester Police visited us to talk about knife crime and staying safe in our community.

The officers explained about 'Joint Enterprise' This is when you may be involved in an incident where somebody dies- you may not have physically hurt the person but could still be charged if you were there and knew that somebody had the knife or had gone intending to fight. 

The children were very mature and asked lots of sensible questions.
