About this Event
SA Police Road Safety Centre Whyalla School Holiday Program
In partnership with the Whyalla City Council, the SA Police Road Safety Centre will be attending the Whyalla Road Safety Centre in October 2024 offering a school holiday program aimed at primary school students. The program provides education on pedestrian and cycle safety, including road rules. The program is delivered by police officers.
A mock roadway is located at the centre and provides a safe environment for participants to become familiar with road signs, pedestrian safety and road rules.
The free school holiday program provides an opportunity for children to gain vital road safety education. Participants in the two-hour program will have a classroom session and a practical session on pedestrian safety and bicycle riding on the mock roadway to put into practice their newly learnt knowledge.
Participants in the two-hour program will have a classroom session, followed by a practical session on pedestrian safety and cycle safety on the mock roadway to put their new knowledge into practice.
