A huge thank you to PCSO Ian from Somerton Police Station for visiting our children today to talk about staying safe.
The children learned about the Green Cross Code, road safety, stranger danger and the important message "Clever Never Goes!". PCSO Ian also explained the rules around e-scooters, reminding pupils that they should only be used on private land and can be seized if ridden illegally on public roads.
It was wonderful to see the children so engaged and keen to learn more about policing in our local area. 🚔🚦👮‍♂️
