Terrific Traffic!

Some of the teacher's were a little worried when the school playground was full of police cars and vans one morning last week, but there really was no need to worry - it was just our local friendly policeman who had come to teach us about road safety.

First we watched a video in the hall to refresh our memories about how to be responsible pedestrians.  Then the fun began when we went outside to put our knowledge to the test!

The children navigated their way through a series of traffic lights, signs and zebra crossings.



There was even a roundabout which caused a little confusion.

Then it was time for pedestrians to  join in.  They too had to make their way around the network of roads and crossings safely.

  



It was only a matter of time before a minor collision brought the traffic to a standstill.
Luckily it was resolved quickly and the traffic flowed smoothly again.  

  The streets of Alfaz are all the safer after our experience!
