Any recommendations for the lifeboat game?

Hello there
Do any of you teach the lifeboat/air balloon game?
If so, do you have a link or could you tell me which people you use to be discussed? Do you review it as a list or ask kids to defend their place?
I found a link in the student room but am not that keen to use religion, colour, disability in the descriptions although with much older kids ethics/morality/discrimination/faith would be decent discussion points. My group is small...aged 9-13
Thanks in advance x

I'm pretty sure there's one on teachit.

Maybe try googling it as 'hot air balloon' game. That's what I've always known it as.

Ah thanks. Have taught it already. Found what I needed on busy
teacher...(survivor choose who to save). Was perfect as document printable, just had jobs/age/sex, no ethical or inappropriate back stories. Needed lifeboat to go with rest of theme of lesson but air balloon is the original. Thanks for the reply Flowers
