In recent years，campus security have become a hot topic. In Safety Education Day，I was honored to be a volunteer raise the primary school students' awareness of safety. I told those students about things what they should never do. For an example，don't fly a kite near electrical wires or play with fire-fighting equipments. While in school，never run up and down the stairs. In addition, clean windows without any means of protection is also dangerously. I hoped these tips will help they avoid danger.
