LBC Road Safety Team - 25th February 2020
As we haven't had a road crossing patrol outside school for a while, our Year 6 children wrote letters to the council to find what is being done to ensure that children are being kept safe on the road. They wrote very persuasive letters which were received by the team at Luton Borough Council who organised to come into school and explain what is being done to recruit a new crossing patrol and how children can keep safe.

Victorian Day - 11th December 2019
