Trip to Road Safety Park

Dear parents,
just a quick update on our trip to the Road Safety Park @ East Coast on 8 March 2013.
The objective of this trip was to increase pupils' awareness of the traffic rules in Singapore. This trip was an initiative to better educate pupils about the importance of good road safety habits and to ensure the safety of the road users. This trip has provided pupils with the opportunity to put the rules learnt into practice by stimulating real life road conditions while they commuted around the road safety park. Mistakes/road offences committed by pupils were identified and recorded by the marshals on duty. Through this stimulation of a actual road condition, pupils were able to learn the traffic rules whilst under a fun and safe environment.

Here are some photographs taken during the activity,

It was a bright and sunny afternoon.

A 25 minutes long briefing was conducted before pupils proceeded on to the road safety game.
Pupils were assigned with a role each, namely the pedestrian, cyclist and go-kart driver.
