Road Safety with Constable Ross

On Monday we went for a walk with Constable Ross.

We practised crossing the road.

You need to:
  • Stop, and take a step back
  • Look both ways
  • Listen for cars
  • Walk across the road





We also learnt about sneaky driveways

Diwali

I went to the Diwali Festival. I was on the stage. I did a dance. Everyone was taking photos. I was shy. There were more than a thousand and ten people. I loved the other dancing more and I was in the newspaper. It lasted until my bedtime. After I changed I had to go straight to bed.

Road Safety


Constable Ross came to school today to talk to us about road safety. We talked about the different vehicles that are on our roads.

We came up with some safety rules for when we are in a car.

Always put your seat belt on- hear it click.
Make sure the door is shut.
Don't get out of the car until it has stopped.
You need to be in a booster until you are 7 years old or 148cm.
The tallest person in our class isn't 148cm yet.

Don't distract the driver
Don't throw things out the window.
Always get out of the car from the footpath side.
Never play around parked cars.



We remembered to get out of the car on the footpath side!
