Over the last couple of weeks, we have been learning about the importance of road safety. We had the opportunity to participate in workshops about road safety and why it is important, particularly during the winter months.
We also had a whole school competition to design an informative road safety poster. A huge well done to the children across KS1 and KS2 for designing brilliant posters that we couldn’t wait to share with you.
A special congratulations to Diana in Year 5 for winning the poster competition!
