This week, all children have been learning about road safety. This work has been carried out in partnership with Parent Council and in response to concerns around a couple of near misses at drop off and pick up times. All children have brought home a reflector today on their bag (funded by Parent Council) and we encourage you to keep this on their bag. We have shared the learning in the primary classes on Seesaw and the Nursery pupils have brought home a Ziggy Book today. Please talk to your child about their learning in class this week and support them to continue to practise the road safety skills they have learnt. Even if the road is quiet, don’t let them cross without following Stop, Look, Listen and Think and encourage them to wear bright colours to be visible.  Please also support everyone’s road safety at drop and pick up time by leaving your car at home if you can or if you do need to drive your child to school, parking at a distance and walking the last section. The less cars around the school the safer everyone is at these busy times. Please respect the 20mph speed limit in the village.

Primary 3/4 have displayed their road safety learning on a poster – look at the super messages they have shared:

Primary 5/6/7 have displayed their learning in board games which they younger pupils will be able to play to reinforce this important learning:

 

Primary 1/2 enjoyed using the road layout in the playground to practise their Stop, Look, Listen, Think.

Nursery Parents, please look out for the Ziggy Book and share it at home:
