Yesterday Mr Somerfield came to talk to us about Road Safety. He set up a pretend car and got children to show him which seats were the safest and which were not so safe to sit in. All children under 148cm must be in an approved booster seat (There is a height chart in Kindle 2 if you want to check). Mrs Dakers learned that it is not illegal for children to sit in the front seat even though it is the least safe place in a car for children to sit. If there is no choice and children do sit in the front seat, you can make it safer by moving the seat back as far as it can go, so that children are not injured by the airbag if it is activated.
Today he talked to children about walking on the safe side of the footpath and always crossing the road with an adult. We went out onto George St and practised looking for sneaky driveways and walking on the safe side of the footpath.
Thanks Mr Somerfield
