This week all the year 3 children have earned their safe walking certificates. They have practised:

- walking safely on the pavement, keeping away from the road

- choosing a safe place to cross the road, in a straight line, onto a clear pavement

- making sure they can see clearly and be seen by all road users

- crossing with care, at a safe time

-and using pedestrian crossing points to cross busy roads

Children learn by example. They need to continue to practise safe walking with their responsible adult to prepare them for walking independently when they are older. For further guidance, please see The Highway Code Rules for Pedestrians (1-35).
