Airyhall Primary School - Junior Road Safety Officers

   Airyhall Primary School have appointed a number of Junior 
   Road Safety Officers, a group of Primary 5 pupils, who have been 
   selected to campaign for safer and more eco-friendly travel to 
   school. 

   The pupils meet each term and run campaigns, competitions and 
   display important information about road safety.

   Most recently they have been involved in a speed campaign with 
   Police Scotland here they stopped and spoke to drivers who 
   were speeding outside the school.

   Along with students from RGU, they have recorded a serious of 
   short films to promote safer and more eco-friendly travel to school.  

   The videos have been very professionally put together and are 
   worth watching.  

   Click on each of the videos to view them.

   










The Community Council congratulate the pupils, 
their teachers and the RGU students, on a great initiative.

In his November update, Inspector Ian McKinnon says, "A positive month, a general reduction in crime across the areas.  We will continue to offer crime prevention advice where we think it is necessary, particularly in areas that may be at risk, whilst promoting messages about home security and the importance of lights at this time of year.

Over the next three weeks we will have dedicated patrols on some evenings patrolling streets and issuing crime prevention leaflets to try and reinforce the message.  We are also supporting this with additional dedicated crime patrols at other times our analysis suggests are 'risk' periods.

Together with the fantastic support we already receive from our communities in relation to identifying possible thieves, we can hopefully ensure that everyone has a Merry Christmas (except maybe the thieves). As the last report for 2016, can I just say that I genuinely appreciate the support my team receives from the Community Councils, Partners, Councillors and members of the public and I look forward to continuing this throughout 2017.
