Road Safety Advisory for Students

To ensure everyone stays safe when travelling to and from school, students are reminded to practise good road safety habits at all times.

General Road Safety Tips

• Always walk on the pavement and keep a safe distance from the road.

• Do not run or play near the road.

• Avoid using mobile phones or other devices while walking near traffic.

• Always be alert and aware of vehicles around you.

• Follow the instructions of teachers, school staff, road marshals and security officers.

Crossing the Road Safely

• Always use designated crossings such as:

• Zebra crossings

• Traffic light crossings

• Overhead bridges or underpasses

• Wait for the green man signal before crossing at traffic lights.

• Never dash across the road, even if you are in a hurry.

Remember the Kerb Drill

When crossing the road, practise the Kerb Drill:

• Stop one step behind the kerb.

• Look Right, Look Left, Look Right again for approaching vehicles.

• Listen for traffic sounds.

• Think if it is safe to cross.

• Walk across the road quickly, but do not run.

Let us all play our part in keeping our school community safe by practising good road safety habits everyday.
