Road safety excursion

Year 5 students from Ettalong Public School attended the road education facility at Palmdale on Monday, November 21, and Tuesday, November 22, to learn more about bicycle and road safety.

While at the centre, the children were instructed on safe and correct bicycle riding techniques and reminded of all road safety rules.

"The school takes road safety, and especially bike riding safety, seriously and this excursion is a vital component of our ongoing program," said principal Mr Colin Wallis.

"Too many children as well as adults are being maimed or killed on our roads and so much of this can be avoided through education and support by parents."
