Year 5 Pedestrian Training

On Wednesday 12th June the Year 4 pupils took part in Pedestrian Training delivered by the STARs team. The children were spilt into small groups and learnt about the different hazards on the roads as well as how to keep themselves safe when walking on the pavements and crossing roads, particularly busy ones. Once they had received their initial training, the children ventured out onto the local roads around the primary school to put into practice all they had learnt. It was an invaluable experience for the children as they witnessed some of the hazards first-hand and felt confident in knowing what they needed to do to keep safe. We hope that by taking part in the Pedestrian Training, this will encourage more children to travel to school sustainably (walking, biking, scooting etc.) as they will feel more confident about travelling along our roads.
