Road Safety
Last Thursday and Friday Transition Year students had the pleasure of welcoming Garda Grainne O’Shea from the Waterford Roads Policing Unit to deliver the new Garda Lifesaver Project in conjunction with their Road Safety Module in TY.
It is a new 2 hour road safety education presentation that was hard-hitting and realistic and highlighted the devastating effects that road traffic collisions have on people’s lives.
Garda O’Shea engaged our students in the talk using role play, video inserts and personal experiences of road traffic collision victims and/or their families.
The program delivered a strong road safety message and addressed the current rising number of deaths and serious injuries that are occurring from collisions on our roads.
