We were very pleased to host a Kids’ Court here in Artigarvan Primary School & Community Nursery. As many of you know, the busy road outside our school continues to be a concern for everyone.

Seven of our Year 7 pupils were chosen to take part in this special project. It was a wonderful opportunity for them, especially as they begin preparing for their move to secondary school and will soon have more responsibility for travelling to and from school.

We are extremely proud of how well the children represented Artigarvan Primary School. They were enthusiastic, eager to get involved, and keen to help raise awareness about road safety—especially the dangers of speeding near a school.

Take a look at some of the media coverage below and please do pass on the message to others- slow down, our children matter!
