KS2 Junior Road Safety Officers!

Today the Junior Road Safety Officers (JRSO’s) teamed up with the Police community support officers (PCSOs) to conduct a traffic survey outside of school, specifically to see how many people were seen parking on the yellow lines during pick up.

They will now meet with Mrs Watts and the Safety Guardians to come up with a plan to help make the roads near our school, a safer place for children.

A massive thank you toย the PCSOs for their invaluable assistance in this initiative.

School Council Event

On Thursday, a small group of our school councillors went to Southwater Library to feature in Councillor, Shaun Davies’ Christmas video. The children got to ask Shaun a series of festive โ€˜This or Thatโ€™ questions and talked about some of their own Christmas traditions. While they were there, they enjoyed reading some books too!

The video will be aired mid-December and used widely across the councilโ€™s digital channels to wish borough residents a Merry Christmas!
