Taking safety to the classroom

The interactive learning session also included teaching the children the emergency number (10111), the importance of wearing a seatbelt, crossing the road as well as respect

What is a stranger? How do you identify a police officer?
What do the colours of a robot represent?
These and more questions were put to the learners of St Gregory Primary School on Wednesday morning when David Allen from the Community Police Forum (CPF), Nafisa Gunkel from the municipal traffic department and Constable Dlamini from the Estcourt police station visited the school.
The purpose was to educate, while also having fun.
The interactive learning session also included teaching the children the emergency number (10111), the importance of wearing a seatbelt, crossing the road as well as respect.
To the children’s delight, Mr Allen demonstrated magic tricks to reinforce the message. These visits have been taking place in several schools during the past weeks.
