The Junior Road Safety Officers, with the help of their classmates in Yangtze Class, spent the afternoon washing cars today. And what a great job they did! Mr Leicester’s car (which had never been washed since being bought in the autumn!) was transformed: the children were convinced it was smiling as it was driven off the playground. Mrs Scott and Mr Eaves, who helped the children, were impressed with their enthusiasm, energy, commitment to high standards and customer care! Each car left washed, dried and gleaming in the spring sunshine.
The children raised over £60 towards their yellow lines project. They are determined to transform the parking issues at the front of the school for the better by having yellow zig-zag lines painted. This would mean the emergency services always have access to the school in an emergency and the school bus will always be able to get around. This is another excellent example of ‘courageous advocacy’ at Fressingfield Primary School: we want our children to understand that they are able to make a positive difference to the world around them through their actions.
There are lots of ways in which children can get involved and take on responsibilities at Fressingfield Primary School, including being a librarian, a JRSO, an anti-bullying ambassador, eco-committee member, gardening club member, or a member of the school council. If your child is interested in getting involved, just speak to their class teacher to find out more.
