Ollie and Rosie-Joy performed their last duty as JRSO for Wallacewell this year. They went to the star awards and received a gold star award for their video about road safety. Well done!

This week we went to ASDA and we left school during lunch time. Then we started walking up the path on the hill . When we got to the lights we waited for a minute there standing . Then we walked across the road looking left and right . When we got to the other side we where there at ASDA . We met the road safety officers in Glasgow named Chris and Holly. They gave us some road safety bags to give to people for free and we  gave them out fast. We set a record for 10 minutes so for our good work we got a flash light . Chris is the one who gave them to us .Holly was checking up on us when we were giving the road safety bags. We got back to school and went back to class.

We have been very busy talking to all the classes about walking 🚶 to school if possible. Next week we will give out badges.
Now it is getting dark we need to start getting everyone to think about wearing brightly coloured jackets 🧥 to school.

Jaishan and Leah our JRSO stood up at the Assembly this week to tell everyone that we had been selected to join Wow ,a charity promoting walking to school. This year the JRSO will try to encourage everyone to try to walk 🚶 all or part of the way to school.

Leah said “ I found telling the school about WOW perfectly fine.”

” I found talking on the stage a bit nerve racking but also very fun. Overall, I think it was a bit crazy in front of the school.

They are both determined to do a good job to promote road safety at Wallacewell Primary this year.

This week the two new JRSO attended an induction meeting at Glasgow City Hall. They were very impressed with the venue and are looking forward to involving Wallacewell Primary in some new projects. They will promote Road Safety in and around our school this year.

Ollie and Rosie-Joy have been very enthusiastic and responsible Junior Road Safety Officers this year. On Friday they received their certificates for representing Wallacewell Primary School and organising events within the school. Well done!

We have inspected the drive since the workmen repainted the car park and the crossings on the driveway. It looks brighter and better now. You can see the crossing for children to cross over and the car park has lines that you can see. The disabled space is now closer to the main door.

We interviewed Miss Davidson about how she organised it. She had contacted lots of people from the council and got someone to do the lines. She thinks it is better and organised.

As the JRSO we like the driveway into school and think this will help with road safety.

On Tuesday 12th of March Ollie and Rosie traveled to the City Chambers to make a film about road safety around Wallacewell Primary. They had a great experience learning about the task of making a film and all the jobs associated with creating images for a film. The next task is to share their video with the school.

The P5 JRSO have been very busy this term making a road safety film. Ollie and Rosie-Joy have written the script, chosen the “actors” and organised all the photographs they need to make this short film. Wish them luck as they travel to the City Chambers on Tuesday 12th of March to  finalise their work.
