Road Safety Week with Constable Taina

Day 1

Constable Taina visited our class this week to teach us about road safety.

She taught us some road rules:

-we should be over 8 years old to cross the road by ourselves.
-the road is for the traffic and the footpath is for the pedstrians
-if we are walking on the footpath, we should keep our eyes to the front, keep our hand to ourselves and walk on the footpath close to the houses.
-we should never play on the road.

We then went to the netball court to practise our walking.  We had to look right first then left then right again and we also had to listen for the traffic before stepping out.

She also told us to stay away from the kerb.
