Streetwise highlights the dangers of the road in Year 7 assembly.
This morning Year 7 students watched Streetwise, a new hard-hitting Theatre in Education show which highlights the dangers of getting distracted while walking along familiar routes. The show is aimed at students starting a new journey to secondary school and asks them to consider the risks around phones, mp3’s or chatting and messing around when crossing the road. The performance was also attended by Councillor Gill Mitchell, Chair of the Council’s Environment, Transport and Sustainability Committee and is funded by Sussex Safer Roads Partnership. It is part of Varndean School’s ongoing work to ensure the safety of our students on their journeys to and from school and around the city.
