Y5 Road Safety Officers

Our Junior Road Safety Officers attended a training event at The Round Chapel. They learnt more about their new roles and had time to plan ideas for promoting road safety in our school. They also took part in a range of interactive activities, including learning about the future of electric cars and travelling safely on buses. The children loved conducting speed tests on the main road with the Safer Transport Police! Look out for our road safety initiatives throughout the coming year.
