Let me introduce our new Junior Road Safety Officers for this session. Today they met with Elaine Skinley who gave them lots of Road Safety goodies to use throughout the year with the classes in the school.
We had our first meeting last week and the group have already filled a page with ideas of things they want to do this year. Road Safety Week is coming up next term so keep an eye out for some exciting things happening in school!
Pupils who were in P4/5/6 last year, took part in a competition run by The Archie Foundation. They were asked to illustrate a page for a book called, ‘Archie and Amanda’s Amazing Adventures,’ by author Alec Franks. The story is about a little girl in hospital and it is hoped it will be relatable to young patients at The Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital.
We were delighted to learn that Leah Sandiland’s (P6) picture has been selected for the book and is currently at the printers! There were hundreds of entries so huge congratulations to Leah!
All pupil entries will be displayed in Union Square, Aberdeen, over the weekend of 8th and 9th October, with Dunrossness entries being displayed on the 9th. The author will be doing live readings and copies of the book can be bought at the event. We hope to be sent a copy for us to see in school.
Well done to all the pupils who took part. Any one of you could have been a winner!
Here are the winning designs from the recent JRSO competition to design a t-shirt which would be clearly seen by traffic during the day.
P1- Greg
P2 – Lauren
P3 – Jasmin
P4 – Scott
P5 – Georgia
P6 – Fiona
P7 – Kayla
The group were amazed by all of the super designs, but decided that out of all of the entries, they would award Kayla Smith in P6 as the overall winner! Here they are with their designs.
Thank you to everyone who took part in their recent Road Safety activities!
This year’s Junior Road Safety Officers are Hannah, Ava, Anders and Magnus.
This year I’m hoping to be a good example for the younger ones. Anders.
This year I am looking forward to learning more about road safety. Magnus.
I’m looking forward to communicating with you all over glow. Hannah.
I’m looking forward to working together in a group and seeing the ideas we will come up with. Ava
Our team got straight to work counting out how many reflectors were needed for each Primary class. They will be quarantined until next week before being given out. We hope they help to keep you safe on the darker nights!
