What have the JRSO’s done so far… Since joining the JRSO scheme 2 years ago we have achieved many things… Spoken to governors to introduce the scheme and talk about car park safety Played a part in securing the car park (and our children) Patrolled the gate and the zig zag lines Lead assemblies, including The Green Cross Code and Be Bright Be Seen Held a quizdom competition with each class Slogan and banner competitions Created our own page on the school website Taken part in national events like walk to school week Produce termly newsletter Attended parents evenings

We have also joined forces with the Bikeit! Crew. We worked together with Mrs Bottriell and our Head Teacher, spoke to the governors and FROGJS about funding for a new bike shelter. Look what we got!
