When we want to cross the roads we must remember the Green Cross Code and concentrate on what we are doing.

It is important to use our eyes and look for traffic. If we see a vehicle approaching we cannot judge how fast it is travelling, so we must think carefully before starting to cross.

Drivers who speed do not always alter their speed as they approach our school so think about keeping safe as you use the roads.

We cannot know what drivers are thinking about or if they are concentrating on their driving so think about keeping safe when you are travelling to school.

We do not know if the driver has begun to slow down as they approach our school so think about keeping safe as you leave school.

Remember to:

Arrive Alive

As we approach the Christmas holidays it is very easy to forget how important it is to concentrate on the everyday things including taking care on the roads.

Drivers are often rushing about trying to shop for presents and becoming excited about the holidays too and we must do everything we can to keep safe.

WHAT AM I?

Now I am very common
To guess this you’ll have to try.

Most of you without me
Would struggle to get by.

My colours they are endless
Some are big and some are small

Some people are not sure.

I’d say you take me out most days
Wherever you may go.

Sometimes we take some friends along
Or have a caravan in tow.

So I’m sure you’ve worked me out now
So guess and have a try.

For now I’m going to say to you
Beep – Beep, Toot – Toot, Goodbye.

Yes, of course it is a car.

Cars and other vehicles that travel on our roads are often going too fast. This makes it very difficult for all of us when we are trying to cross the road.

Speed is still the major cause of accidents on the road. When we want to cross a road we cannot tell what speed a vehicle is travelling at so we must remember to find a safe place to cross where we can see both ways clearly andSTOPat the kerb to check that the road is clear.

When it is safe to do so then we can cross remembering our Green Cross Code and
