Whole School - Road Safety Awareness

Lesson: Personal, Social and Emotional Education

Class: EYFS (F2) Reception Year: 2024 - 2025

This week we met as a school to talk about Road Safety Week. This year it will take place from the 17th to the 23rd of November. 

We thought about who our road safety heroes were. We decided they were people who would: 

• Work really hard to overcome difficulty
• Do something really well
• Be really brave

We learnt that everyone who helps make journeys safer and healthier or helps care for someone after a crash is a road safety hero.

We talked about the different road safety heroes: 

• School crossing patrols
• Roads policing officers
• Road designers and highway engineers
• Fire and rescue services
• Ambulance services
• Medical staff in hospitals

The Y5 road safety officers will be holding a poster competition in November to make people aware of road safety dangers and how to cross safely.
