  • Get involved in organising safe and active travel activities.
  • Write letters
  • Providing information on a variety of road safety related activities

How do pupils become a JRSO’s

One child per class was voted in by his or her peers to represent them and we have the opportunity to deliver important road safety messages to the entire school community.
