🚲🛴 Travel Safely Every Day 🚸

The safety and wellbeing of our students is always our highest priority.

As more students choose to ride bikes and e-scooters to and from school, we would like to remind everyone of the importance of safe and considerate road use.

✅ Always wear an approved helmet
✅ Follow all road rules
✅ Ride responsibly and be aware of your surroundings
✅ Use designated pedestrian crossings and traffic lights
✅ Dismount and walk bikes and scooters once on school grounds

We have received reports of some students taking unnecessary risks on roads and around intersections. We ask families to reinforce safe riding habits and respectful behaviour with their children to help keep everyone safe.

By working together, we can ensure all students travel to and from school safely each day.

Thank you for your ongoing support.

Reminder: Pupil Free Day – Tomorrow
