Student work book
Worksheets – death, dying and bereavement &
the work of the hospice.
Name:
Class:
AyrshireHospice|Student workbook
These worksheets have been designed to begin
conversations around death, dying, bereavement and the
work of the hospice. In today’s society we often avoid
talking about death, but why? Death is a part of life and
here at the hospice we believe that children and young
people have the right to know what it involves. These
lessons will help give you an understanding of this and
open up honest conversations in the class room or
separately with class teachers.
Note: It is important to keep in mind during the process of
these lessons that a class mate may have experienced the
death of a loved one. Please be respectful of this and
without drawing attention to others experiences answer
the questions and contribute to class discussions in a
responsible manner.
