Road Safety

This week two Gardaí visited us to talk about Road Safety. They showed us a PowerPoint presentation. Then they quizzed us on how much we had learned.

The main points we learned were:

• Stop, look and listen before you cross the road.
• When cycling, always wear your helmet.
• You have to be 150cm tall before you sit in the front seat of a car. (Being age 12 does not matter! You have to be 150cm tall!)
• We should tell everyone in the car to put on their seat belts - it's not rude to tell adults to do this.

Remember, there is only one person responsible for your own safety and that is YOU!
