Safety Outside School Campaign

The Shetland Islands Council and Police Scotland are running a Shetland wide campaign this week to promote safety outside of schools.  As part of their campaign they have spoken to P4-7 pupils at assembly, handed out leaflets to families and erected banners outside of schools.

A number of schools have also had small characters outside encouraging parents/carers not to park on yellow or zig zag lines.

We are really grateful to all parents/carers for supporting this campaign and parking safely around the school. The photograph below was taken at 3pm on Monday 5 March.  The Crossing Patrol Attendant and pupils couldn’t believe the difference this made to their safety as they crossed the road.  They could easily see any vehicles coming.
