SAFE CYCLING

We have been made aware by a member of the community that some NJS pupils have been spotted cycling without helmets.  We are doing brilliantly well with the ‘Big Pedal’ challenge however part of this initiative is also ensuring children understand safe travel.  Please remind your children that when cycling to school they should take their helmet and please support them in ensuring their helmet is correctly fitted.

So.. some useful reminders for safe use of scooters and bikes for the journey to and from school:

*Children  must wear a helmet.

*Children must use the roads or pavements appropriately and be considerate of those travelling on foot.

*Children must dismount their bikes/scooters as soon as they arrive at the green or black gates and should not mount them until they have left school site.

*We advise families to talk together about the safest route to take to school and the best crossing points where children will have good vision in both directions where possible.

KEEP GOING: We are currently 15th nationally out of over 2,000 schools!

WELL DONE NJS, THIS IS FABULOUS!
