SCHOOL STREETS 
School Streets give children the chance to walk, cycle or scoot to school safely in the street of the school without danger from traffic. It school children to get to know other children on their way to school, keep active and also help with social distancing during the current pandemic. A School Street closes the road outside the school from traffic for up to 45 minutes, twice a day, during school term time only.

In order for school streets to be successful we desperately need parent volunteers to help us supervise the closure of the street. If you are a parent and feel you would be able to support the school community by supervising and controlling the barrier closures, please complete the form below.
We hope to organise a rota so volunteers would only be required to supervise a closure once a week. The more people who are willing to volunteer the greater chance we have of ensuring School Street keeps running.
(If you are able to volunteer the school are more than happy for your child/ren to come into their class earlier while you supervise the road closure).
